Scale

- 3 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
- 1 cup blueberries
- balsamic glaze, for drizzling over the salad
- 1/4 cup roasted pistachios (optional)
- 1/4 cup feta chees crumbles (optional)
Instructions
- Spread the arugula leaves out over a large serving platter.
- Drizzle with olive oil and a pinch or two of sea salt. Massage the oil and salt into the arugula leaves gently with your hands.
- Mince the mint leaves and add them to the top of the arugula.

Notes
- Feta cheese and pistachios (or sunflower seeds) are optional ingredients in this recipe. Consider serving them tableside, so that each person can decide whether or not they’d like to add them to the salad.
- Used mixed greens in place of arugula, if you don’t like the more peppery flavor of arugula.
