Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat or heat a grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high; oil grate or pan.
- Using a 2" diameter ring cutter or thin drinking glass, cut watermelon into circles; you should have 20-22 pieces (reserve scraps for another use). Season watermelon on both sides with 1/2 tsp. salt. Grill watermelon until well charred, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside until cool to the touch, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss tomatoes, 1 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a large bowl.
- Layer watermelon, tomato mixture, and cheese in alternating layers on a platter, draining any extra liquid from tomatoes before using. Drizzle with oil, season with pepper, and serve.

Steps:
- Combine cheese*, spinach*, olives, and mint with cubed ingredients. Dressing: Combine oil, vinegar, honey, salt, pepper, and basil in a small, lidded container. Shake very well to combine ingredients. Drizzle lightly over salad ingredients. (I use little more than half of the dressing.) Stir gently. Refrigerate or serve. May garnish salad lightly with additional chopped mint leaves. *Unless serving immediately, do not add cheese or spinach in advance. Just before serving, mix cheese and spinach into the dressed salad.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, juicy watermelon and tomatoes for the best flavor.
- If you don't have feta cheese, you can substitute another type of cheese, such as goat cheese or mozzarella.
- Add some fresh herbs, such as basil or mint, for extra flavor.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for a few hours before serving.
