Look how pretty these are! I was trying to think of a way to use up a ton of watermelon and mint that I had and came up with these gorgeous summer wedges!
The mint pesto is so simple to throw together and can absolutely be made in advance and any leftovers are fabulous on grilled fish or chicken.
The salty feta, fresh mint pesto and juicy sweet watermelon is a match made in summer heaven

Hi there. I'd like to share these pics with my child after school -- maybe you'll laugh but I'd rather call it watermelon pizza ����
ReplyDeleteIs it sweet and sour? Thank you for sharing.
Watermelon Pizza sounds great to me!!
DeleteIt's more sweet and savory, not really sour. The salt from the feta really works well with the naturally sweet watermelon!
This looks incredible. What a different style dish. I have never had watermelon wedge salad. Pinning for later. :)
