  • 1/2 package fresh basil
  • juice of 3/4 lemon
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Golden Light Agave
  • salt & pepper

Directions:

  1. Watermelon Feta Salad: Cut watermelon, tomato (seeds removed), red onion and feta into similar sized cubes. Gently rinse, pat dry and tear fresh basil and mint. Toss all ingredients together and set aside.
  2. Lemon Balsamic Vinaigrette: Whisk olive oil, balsamic, lemon juice, agave and salt & pepper vigorously to combine. Drizzle over watermelon salad.
