Watermelon Antipasto Salad

Serves 4-6
“For me, Summer = watermelon and side dishes always = some kind of antipasto, so I gave a combo of my two favorite flavors a try and the result = my new fave NO-COOK summer side.” -Jeanette
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 6 cups seedless watermelon, chopped into 1-inch cubes
- 1 pound fresh mozzarella, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1/2 pound salami, unsliced, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 seedless cucumber, chopped into small cubes
- 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives
- 10 to 12 large basil leaves, thinly sliced
- 1 packed cup baby arugula
Directions
In a large bowl (preferably the bowl you’ll be serving out of to avoid having extra dishes to wash ;)), whisk together olive oil and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Add watermelon, mozzarella, salami, red onion, cucumber, olives, basil and arugula. Toss together and serve.
