Notes
-
- Watermelon: You need about two cups of cubed watermelon, which is about one quarter of a regular sized watermelon (unless you are doubling or tripling this recipe, which I heartily endorse!). You can either cube it up yourself, or but watermelon already cubed – look for that in your grocery store produce section. It’s more expensive but might be worth it if you are in a rush.
-
- Herbs: We love basil and especially mint in this salad, but experiment with whatever herbs are your fave! Thyme would work great. Just make sure whatever herbs you use are fresh – you can find them in your grocery store produce section.
-
- Burrata Cheese: More info on this creamy, dreamy cheese below, but if you can’t find it (sob!) you can use cubed fresh mozzarella instead.
