Ingredients
Scale
1/2 medium watermelon
8 oz Greek feta cheese

Instructions
- Chop the watermelon. Remove the rind from the watermelon, cut the melon into 1-inch cubes and put in a large mixing bowl. (You should have about 6 cups total.)
- Chop the feta. Cut the feta into 1/2-inch cubes, put on top of the watermelon in the bowl. Gently stir the feta and the watermelon together. Resist the urge to snack on the watermelon.
- Chiffonade the basil. Wash and dry basil leaves. Stack basil leaves on top of each other and roll lengthwise into a "cigar;" slice into small ribbons. Sprinkle on top of feta and watermelon mixture just before serving.
