Roasting the watermelon makes for a delicious spin on the classic watermelon and feta flavor combination. Watermelon is a great source of vitamins A and C while the Feta cheese is a great source of protein and vitamin B-6.
This light and refreshing dish is the perfect appetizer for a summer barbecue!
