This salad is a great way to use up leftover watermelon and cantaloupe. I also like to add a handful of chopped fresh basil to the salad for an extra pop of flavor.

I'm not a big fan of watermelon, but I really enjoyed this salad. The cantaloupe and mint were a great combination. I also liked the addition of the feta cheese, which added a bit of saltiness.

This salad was so easy to make and it turned out so well! I used a honeydew melon instead of cantaloupe and it was still delicious. The mint vinaigrette was the perfect finishing touch.
