Notes
This salad is best served chilled. It pairs well with grilled chicken or fish for a complete meal. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days, but it's best enjoyed fresh due to the watermelon releasing water over time. For added crunch and flavor, consider adding cucumber or red onion, or a sprinkle of nuts like pistachios.
