I tried this Weight Watchers Watermelon Salad With Feta Recipe last year at a cookout and loved it! Now previously I never would have thought these flavors would come together to make a tasty light summer dessert but it works! Watermelon is zero on the Weight Watchers Simplified Plan!

I love that our farm stand is now getting in fresh watermelons! This is one fruit that everyone in my family loves to eat and enjoy. I try to find ways to change it up and this is one of my go-tos when we get invited to potlucks or to family BBQs!

WHAT IS Weight Watchers?
New to Weight Watchers?? Also known as WW, a weight loss program uses points assigned to food to track and lose weight. When you sign up, you take an assessment that will assign you a point value to eat daily and a weekly allowance. You can carry over 4 points from the day into your weekly allowance, which is handy when you need more points.
I have been on Weight Watchers since 2011. They have had Points Plus Value, WW Smartpoints, blue plan, green plan, purple plan, WW Personal Points, and now Weight Watchers Points. The new Weight Watchers Simplified plan launched in November 2022 is similar to WW Smartpoints, with some color plans.
No matter the WW plan, they work to help you learn healthy eating habits. I have hit lifetime a couple of times but stopped working the plan and tracking, so the weight does creep back on. Head on over ->here to get a month for free.
Watermelon Salad With Feta Recipe Ingredients:
How To Make Watermelon Salad With Feta:
Start out by cutting up your watermelon.
Next, chop up your mint leaves we peeled them off the stems first.
In a bowl place in your watermelon and sprinkle over your mint and salt.
Give the combination a stir and then sprinkle over with feta cheese.
Next, slowly drizzle over your balsamic vinegar.
Allow to chill for 30 minutes and then serve and enjoy!!!
Now you can use a reduced-fat feta cheese to bring down the points on this but my store didn’t have any. I was expecting the points to come out way higher when I first plugged this in so I am excited to see this!

Hello Jenny. This recipe is Simply Delish! I am not a big fan of Feta, but once in a while & it works well with these sweet flavors. I would add Crumbled Boursin for a substitute as well. I had a Grilled Peach & Watermelon Salad at a place called ” Clean Plate” in Providence, RI , & it had Baby Spinach, & other greens-Freesi? (can’t spell it), Red Lettuce, Romaine & Mint w/Reduced Balsamic Vinegar! I tell you, I order it every time I go there now. as well as their Chicken Breast & Waffles & the Heart Attack Burger I call it, lol. ( P. Butter & Bacon Burger) & they are Heavenly as well as the salad. I make them all at home now ! I hope you will try them too-but only in moderation! I don’t wan’t you top get sick. Enjoy!
