Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

4 cups watermelon, seedless, cubed

1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped

1 tablespoon lime juice

2 tablespoons honey

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

A pinch of salt

Freshly cracked black pepper (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fruits: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and cubed watermelon.

    Add Mint and Lime: Sprinkle the chopped mint leaves over the fruits, then drizzle the lime juice on top. Toss gently to combine.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, mix together the honey with a pinch of salt and, if desired, freshly cracked black pepper. This will enhance the sweetness of the honey.

        Combine: Drizzle the honey mixture over the fruit salad, then toss gently to ensure the fruits are evenly coated.

          Add Feta (Optional): If using, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top of the salad for a creamy contrast.

            Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, let the salad sit in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together.

              Garnish and Enjoy: Serve chilled as a refreshing side salad or light dessert, garnishing with extra mint leaves if desired.
