I’ve recently been eating lots more salad than usual, and this Watermelon Feta Arugula Salad is my absolute favorite! Not only is it jam-packed with flavor and texture, but it’s also ridiculously easy to make. I love the contrast of the sweet watermelon, peppery arugula, and tangy dressing. There are a few keys ingredients that take this salad to the next level. Using both the juice and zest of the citrus, chop up the walnuts into the dressing to make sure it doesn’t all fall to the bottom, and crumbling the feta adds an extra texture to the mix!
