Arugula Salad with Watermelon and Feta and Spicy Vinaigrette

Watermelon and summer go hand in hand and this salad highlights the sweetness of the melon in a healthy and filling way.

Ingredients:

1 bunch arugula (I use Organic Girl baby arugula)

Feta cheese crumbles (I use Boar’s Head creamy feta crumbles)

watermelon cut into bite size chunks

Spicy Vinaigrette:

1/2 cup olive oil

1 1/2 T fresh lime juice

1 T champagne vinegar

1/2 shallot, minced

1/2 serrano chile, minced or sliced into small rounds

salt and pepper to taste

  1. In a jar with lid combine olive oil, lime juice, vinegar, shallot and chile. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Assemble salad by arranging arugula in bowl, top with watermelon and feta to taste. Drizzle with vinaigrette just before serving.

I prefer my salad with LOTS of toppings so pile it on for extra goodness!
