Notes

Pro tip: Slice the onion paper-thin and toss at the last moment to keep the watermelon juicy and the feta from breaking down. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator up to 2 days; the fruit will soften but still tastes good. Freezing is not recommended. For a dairy-light option, use a feta-style vegan cheese with similar melt-free texture (omit dairy feta).
