I’ve been impatiently waiting for watermelons to come into season since like March. We had a hint of a few warm days back then that made me start thinking about spring and summer and all of the wonderful produce that is offered. Of course, the cold weather came back and hung on like a toddler in the middle of a tantrum for quite too long, but the warm weather is finally here and watermelon is in season enough that I’ve been buying it every week.

This salad was everything I was expecting it to be. It's light, refreshing, slightly spicy and perfect for those hot summer days.
