Watermelon Feta Salad with Balsamic Reduction
This vegan feta and watermelon salad is fresh, juicy, and drizzled with a delicious balsamic reduction. It's made in just 15 minutes!
Ingredients
- 1/2 watermelon about 4 cups, cubed
- 4 ounces almond feta crumbled or tofu feta
- 1/4 cup basil in chiffonade
- sea salt and ground black pepper
- 1/2 lime
Balsamic Reduction (you can store the rest):
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1-2 tablespoons coconut sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
- Mix the watermelon, feta, and basil in a bowl.
- Grind the sea salt and ground black pepper over it to season, and squeeze the lime over.
- Gently stir together to combine.
- Drizzle with balsamic reduction.
Balsamic Reduction
- In a pot over medium high heat, heat all the ingredients and stir. Watch carefully - the glaze should begin to thicken after 5 minutes and you want it thick enough to stick to the back of a spoon, but not to thicken into a glob. It becomes very thick very quickly so watch carefully.
- Once glaze has thickened, remove from heat.
