Festive Watermelon Salad

Salad ingredients:

5 cups watermelon, chopped into large pieces

2-3 large handfuls of rocket (arugula)

2 tbs mint leaves, torn

1-2 avocados, chopped into large cubes

1 continental cucumber, halved lengthwise and chopped into thick slices

1 cup snow peas, chopped into halves

¼ red onion, thinly sliced

Toppings:

1 tbs pine nuts, lightly toasted

1/3 cup marinated goat cheese or feta, crumbled 

Dressing ingredients:

2 tbs cold pressed olive oil

3 tbs lime juice, freshly squeezed

Pinch of salt

Method:

Place salad ingredients in a salad bowl.  Top with the pine nuts and goat cheese or feta. 

Combine the dressing ingredients in small container and mix to combine. I like to use a small jar with a lid, that I can shake. You want the salad dressing to taste a little "sharp" on its own, as the flavour will be diluted when combined with the salad.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving and enjoy!
