They are a great way of adding vibrant colors to the table and I love serving sides in huge bowls so everyone can help themselves!  This Watermelon Feta Salad ticks all of the boxes for a great side dish, I can&#8217;t wait for you all to try it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to make Watermelon Feta Salad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>In a large bowl, toss the watermelon and cucumber with \u00bd teaspoon salt. Transfer to a colander set over a large bowl (to catch any liquid that drains) and let it sit for 30 minutes.<\/li><li>In a separate large bowl, whisk the scallions, vinegar, \u00bc teaspoon of salt, and a generous pinch (\u215b teaspoon) of pepper. Whisk in the oil. Set aside.<\/li><li>Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the ears of corn, and cook for 3 minutes. Drain and let cool (you can simultaneously cool the corn and stop the corn from continuing to cook by submerging the ears in a bowl of ice water, but that\u2019s optional.<\/li><li>Once cool, use a knife to cut the kernels off of the cob and place them in the bowl with the scallion vinaigrette. Add the drained watermelon and cucumber (discard the liquid), the feta cheese, and basil; toss. Let the salad stand for 30 minutes then taste it and add more salt and\/or pepper to suit your preference. Serve.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" src=\"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-1.jpg\" alt=\"Watermelon in a colander \" class=\"wp-image-17644\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-1.jpg 1360w, https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-1-300x450.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-1-680x1020.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-1-624x936.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1360px) 100vw, 1360px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Easy Summer Salad Side Dish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s nothing quite like a fresh salad on a hot summer day, and this watermelon feta salad really does hit the spot! The succulent watermelon immediately cools you down and the fresh corn has a subtle sweetness to it. It&#8217;s so colorful and bright to, and sure to please your guests!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make Ahead Watermelon Feta Salad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my favorite things about this salad is that it&#8217;s perfect to make ahead of the time and keep it covered in the fridge. It will keep for two days, so it&#8217;s great if you have lots of other prep to do. It also means that the leftovers stay fresh and tasty!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to serve with Watermelon Feta Salad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This salad will not be out of place at any cookout along side all your favourites, like a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/greek-pasta-salad-with-chicken-feta-and-olives\/\">pasta salad<\/a> and a green leafy salad. Serve it with in a big bowl in the middle of the table with your cooked grilled meat. I would also wager, that this would make and excellent accompaniment to fish taco or serve alongside fries and a burger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" src=\"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-2.jpg\" alt=\"Mixing watermelon feta salad in a glass bowl\" class=\"wp-image-17645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-2.jpg 1360w, https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-2-300x450.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-2-680x1020.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.andiemitchell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/watermelon_corn_salad_feta_basil-2-624x936.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1360px) 100vw, 1360px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Top tips for making Watermelon Feta Salad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Be sure to salt the watermelon and cucumber and let them sit in a colander set inside a larger bowl to drain.

             Once cool, use a knife to cut the kernels off of the cob and place them in the bowl with the scallion vinaigrette. Add the drained watermelon and cucumber (discard the liquid), the feta cheese, and basil; toss. Let the salad stand for 30 minutes then taste it and add more salt and\/or pepper to suit your preference. Serve. <\/span><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<div id=\"recipe-video\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"recipe-17647-notes\" class=\"wprm-recipe-notes-container wprm-block-text-normal\"><h3
