Yellin' for Melon Salad

Part of my unique Summer Salads Series, this melon salad is a fun twist of flavors to our most favorite summer melons.  The sweetness of melons topped with the kick of red onions and balsamic vinegar make a wonderful combination of flavors.  This salad is great by itself for a lunch or snack, or perfect as a side dish to my Island Time Sunday BBQ Dinner.  

Ingredients:
Watermelon
Honeydew Melon
Cantaloupe
Optional toppings:
1 tbsp. red onion, diced small
2 tsp. balsamic vinegar
1  tbsp. feta cheese, crumbles
  1. Cut melons into 1 1/2" cubes of the same size, 12 pieces of each melon.
  2. On serving plates, arrange cubes alternating, three in a row, and three in a column (see picture).
  3. Make second layer, alternating melons again.
  4. Sprinkle with a tbsp. of red onion and feta cheese as desired.
  5. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar...Enjoy!
