Ingredients
- Watermelon Cubes - NatureSweet® Mini Cucumbers - feta cheese - kosher salt - fresh mint leaves
Step 1: Scoop each watermelon cube. Use a melon baller or small spoon to hollow out the middle of each watermelon cube. Be careful not to go more than halfway deep so the watermelon is sturdy enough to hold the watermelon feta salad filling.

Step 2: Dice the cucumbers. Cut your cucumbers into quarters lengthwise. Then cut crosswise to create small diced pieces.
