Ingredients
- 10 cups watermelon
- 2.5 cups blueberries fresh
- 1 cup feta cheese
- ¼ cup basil leaves, fresh torn
- ⅓ cup balsamic glaze see instructions on how to make
Instructions
- To make the balsamic glaze, heat 1 cup of balsamic vinegar on the stove in a small saucepan. Heat until boiling.
- Once boiling, turn down the heat to medium and whisk the vinegar.
- Keep whisking every few minutes. The balsamic vinegar will start to bubble after about 5-7 minutes.
- Once the vinegar has thickened and it is full of bubbles, remove from the heat.
- It will continue to thicken as it cools too. Set aside.
- Add diced watermelon, blueberries, feta cheese and torn fresh basil leaves to a serving platter or bowl.
- Drizzle the balsamic glaze over-top.
- Serve right away.
Notes
Yield: makes about 12 cups of salad.
If you don't want to make the balsamic glaze, I have just used balsamic vinegar. You can also buy pre-made balsamic glaze.
