Heirloom Tomato, Watermelon, and Feta Salad
Summer is one of my favorite times to get my creative juices flowing with salad recipes. I love to go to local farmers markets and see what looks best that day and then creative a recipe from what I found. Last week I picked up these gorgeous baby heirloom tomatoes and decided to make this salad. It really is summer in a bowl. The sweet tomatoes and watermelon go so well with the salty feta; it is one of the best combos! Enjoy!
