Watermelon and Feta Salad

Someone made an appetizer at a party I was recently at with watermelon, feta and mint on a toothpick.  I was so blown away by the flavor combination I decided to try it as a salad.  This is the result.  You can slice the onion, but when spiralized it makes it so fun and a great presentation!  Happy Summer!

Watermelon and Feta Salad
This cool refreshing salad is great as a side. The mixture of sweet and salty with a hint of mint is amazing!
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Spiralize onion. Pour mixture of vinegar, honey and a little salt over the onions and let marinate for at least 20 minutes or more
  2. Sprinkle cheese and chopped mint over over watermelon, add marinated onions
  3. Will last as long as cut watermelon does, best to eat in the same day but can last in the fridge for a day or two! (I know I'm eating my leftovers tomorrow!) The marinated onions are good on other things too and will last in the fridge for days!
