Watermelon and Feta Salad

Adding fruit to salads is an easy way to add colour and really make a salad stand out. The bright red of the watermelon and pomegranate make this a perfect salad to bring along to a celebration on a hot day. The added benefit is that watermelons are 90% water so, when kept nice and cool, this salad is also very refreshing on one of those crazy hot December days.
