Chilled Watermelon Soup

Now here is a perfect dish for summer. This cold soup is simple with just 6 ingredients and is refreshing on hot summer days. Plus it pretty! And with its red color, it makes a great 4th of July side dish - just add a few blueberries as a garnish in stead of the mint sprig.

Ingredients:

1/2 large seedless watermelon
2 sprigs of mint (leaves only)
Juice of 1 lemon
3 small cucumbers diced (preferably Persian)
Salt to taste
Crumbled feta to garnish (optional)

Directions:

Place watermelon, lemon juice, and mint in a blender and blend until smooth. Diced cucumbers, add to blender and pulse briefly. Pieces of cucumber should still be visible. Pour into bowls, add a garnish of your choice and enjoy!
