Refreshing Watermelon Mint Delight

Ingredients

- 1 large seedless watermelon, about 10 pounds
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Watermelon:
- Carefully slice the watermelon in half. Using a large spoon, scoop out the flesh and remove any seeds if necessary. Cut the watermelon flesh into bite-sized cubes and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

2. Prepare the Mint-Lime Dressing:
- In a small bowl, combine the chopped fresh mint leaves, fresh lime juice, honey, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved and the ingredients are well combined.

3. Assemble the Salad:
- Pour the mint-lime dressing over the watermelon cubes. Gently toss the watermelon to ensure each piece is evenly coated in the dressing.

4. Chilling (Optional):
- For a cooler experience, refrigerate the salad for 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. This step is optional but enhances the refreshing taste.

5. Serving:
- Transfer the watermelon salad to a serving platter or individual bowls. If desired, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the top for an added layer of flavor and texture.
