Watermelon Feta Salad with balsamic vinaigrette, a touch of red onion, & a sprinkling of sunflower seeds for a salty crunch – with the appearance of a tart!

In honor of Watermelon Day, I thought it would be a fun idea to create a fun spin on the traditional watermelon feta salad by combining it with the appearance of a watermelon tart. The Watermelon Feta Salad Tart presentation is adorable, and gives a whole new life to such a simple recipe.

The sunflower kernels is something you don’t really see in watermelon & feta salad, but it adds just the perfect amount of salt & crunch, and compliments it so well. You can eat it as a snack or as a light meal.  You can even cut the watermelon into smaller circles for a fun party appetizer that is sure to be the talk of the party.

This is my favorite balsamic dressing to serve with this.
