Watermelon, Tomato and Cheese Salad image

What's the watermelon doing in this recipe? That's what I asked myself too, but it's an awfully good combination! I've made this several times, and it's based off of a recipe I cut out of the NY Times a while ago. Really nice for a spring or summer side dish.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover watermelon. I usually have a lot of watermelon left over after a picnic or barbecue, and this salad is a great way to use it up. It's also a healthy and refreshing snack.

I'm not a big fan of watermelon, but I loved this salad! The tomatoes and cheese really balance out the sweetness of the watermelon. I also liked the addition of the basil and mint. They really brighten up the flavor of the salad.

This salad is so easy to make and it's always a hit at parties. I love the bright colors of the watermelon and tomatoes, and the cheese adds a nice creamy texture. I usually use feta cheese, but I've also tried it with goat cheese and mozzarella. All

I was pleasantly surprised by this salad. I wasn't sure how the watermelon and tomatoes would go together, but it was really good! The cheese added a nice salty contrast. I will definitely be making this again.
