Cucumber Watermelon Feta Rubik’s Salad

  • Prep Time: 30 minutes
  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: as many as you like!

Ingredients

Scale

For the champagne vinaigrette:

  • 1/4 cup champagne vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons real maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon or so of fresh grated ginger root
  • Fresh ground black pepper
  • 12 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

For the salad:

  • Watermelon
  • English cucumber
  • Feta cheese block
  • Mint Leaves & edible flowers, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the vinaigrette except the olive oil. While whisking, drizzle the olive oil in a thin stream into the dressing.
  2. Cut the watermelon, cucumber, and feta cheese into equal size cubes about 3/4 inch thick. I started with the watermelon and once I had a nice cube about the right size, I used that as a measuring device to get the rest of the cubes the same size.
  3. Arrange the cubes into a 9×9 inch square, interchanging watermelon, cucumber and feta (using more watermelon than the other two). Add two more squares of nine cubes on top of that square.
  4. Whisk the vinaigrette a bit and drizzle over top. Garnish with mint leaves and/or edible flowers.
