Tami’s notes
If you prefer a bolder flavor profile, you can add a drizzle of balsamic glaze or a sprinkle of freshly squeezed lime juice to the salad before serving.
Feel free to customize this salad by adding some sliced cucumber, red onion, or mint leaves for additional texture and taste.
This salad is best served fresh, as watermelon tends to release its juice over time.
