Tips
Watermelon Substitutes: If yellow watermelon is unavailable, regular red watermelon works well too.
Herbs: Fresh mint and basil give the salad a burst of flavor, but you can also try cilantro or parsley.
Dressing: For an extra citrusy kick, add a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice to the dressing.
Keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. However, it’s best enjoyed fresh.
Add-ins: To make it a heartier dish, add grilled chicken, shrimp, or avocado.
