Incredible combination. I will definetely make this again. I did use green onions in place of shallots since it was what I had on hand. Really nice for summer time and as a compliment to hot spicey food.

Excellent and easy. Don't change a thing, especially the mint and baby arugula. Go easy on dressing the salad so it doesn't get soggy, and make extra dressing for other salads later in the week. If you live in Queens, NY, pick up fresh sheep milk feta from Titan Greek Grocers.

I bring this salad to dinner parties, everyone loves and remembers it, especially good when main course is lamb. Fun treat in the winter, too!

SOOOOO GOOOD! I have had this salad a few times and finally made it. The sweeter the melon the better. The mint is key. It changes everything and is what makes it memorable. My bf and his friend (practically carnivores absolutely loved this salad. They went back for extra helpings a few times. Do yourself a favor, even if you think you hate an ingredient, use it the first time you make it. You won't be sorry. Not sure about reducing quantity of oil as the dressing is the binder of all the flavors, may just pour less dressing on.

I didn't have any shallots on hand and it was still fabulous! The mint with the watermelon really is what makes this salad. I think some sort of nut (maybe sliced almonds? on this salad would really add another dimension of texture and color that would make it even more of a stand-out!

VERY tasty. VERY good. using good feta cheese is important - don't just use already crumbled. buy a good block of it and crumble yourself. it makes a huge difference and tastes awesome!

This salad was fantastic. The only thing I didn't do was add the mint and used half the olive oil and it was perfect!

This salad is a great summer salad perfect for hot summer night! I think next time I will use a little less olive oil, as it was a bit overpowering. I also left out the mint and shallots, and it was still fabulous! I highly recommend this.

This salad is so refreshing and delicious. I use a light olive oil in the citrus vinaigrette which IMO keeps the vinaigrette from being overpowered by the oil. I think if you don't like arugula and/or mint, you could leave those ingredients out (use mixed greens as a sub for arugula but I wouldn't sub anything for the mint. There are many kinds of feta cheese (e.g., some very strong, some very salty, some mild and nutty flavored, etc. You just need to find one you like. I serve this salad year round.
