TIP OF THE DAY: Enjoy A Watermelon Salad With Feta, Goat Cheese Or Mozzarella
Watermelon salad is so delicious and easy, we wonder why we never see it on restaurant menus. We eat it daily during the hot weather. The watermelon is so juicy and hydrating, we can’t get enough of it.
We adapted this recipe from Mozzarella Company, one of the greatest American cheese makers and a NIBBLE Top Pick Of The Week. They use their delectable mozzarella.
