TOMATO AND WATERMELON SALAD



Tomato and Watermelon Salad image

When it comes time for summer, I can't resist making a salad bursting with ingredients from the local markets. For best results, make the salad without ever refrigerating the tomatoes but with the watermelon cold from the refrigerator. The contrast of temperatures will give the salad an extra fresh taste.

GREEK-STYLE WATERMELON SALAD



Greek-Style Watermelon Salad image

It's not an immediately obvious combination - watermelon, cucumber, olives and feta - but one bite will leave you convinced that this savory-sweet summer salad is something truly special. The astringent punch of the olives and feta provides a sophisticated counterpoint to the watery mellowness of the melon and cucumber. With a hunk of bread, it's a lovely light lunch; with practically any grilled meat or fish, it's an ideal summer supper.
