Watermelon Cucumber and Goat Cheese Salad

Watermelon is at its best this time of year. With a sweet, natural flavour, it’s like nature’s candy!  To pick the best tasting melon, the watermelon should feel heavy for its size. Look for the yellow creamy spot on one end, which means it’s ripe.

2. In a bowl, mix oil, juice and salt and pepper. Pour over salad and toss gently.
