Recipe: Watermelon and Halloumi Salad

February 28, 2020 by Shari Leave a Comment

We’ve been smashing the watermelon of late. The boys love it as a midmorning or afternoon snack. But don’t be giving them any of that regular watermelon – no, they will only eat the seedless watermelon variety. How lucky to grow up in an age where we have seedless watermelon.

I keep telling them that the seeds aren’t that bad, but if they spy a seed, they go into full melt down and I’m left examining every piece and pulling out the seeds for them.

This simple salad combines the refreshing seedless watermelon, with sun-kissed tomatoes, grilled halloumi and herbs. And is just what the summer BBQ calls for…enjoy it whilst you can.

Recipe: Watermelon and Halloumi Salad

  • 200 grams of watermelon
  • 200 grams of halloumi
  • 2 punnets of cherry tomatoes
  • 1 red onion
  • 1/2 bunch of basil
  • 1/2 bunch of mint
  • 2tbsp olive oil
  • 2tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • salt and pepper

Slice the halloumi into 1cm thick pieces and then grill on the BBQ.

Cube the watermelon – making sure that it is seedless. Toss with the halved tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion and picked basil and mint. Top with the grilled halloumi.

Whisk together the oil, apple cider vinegar and seasoning. Drizzle over the salad and serve.

I feel like we definitely up the amount of fruit that we eat during the holidays cause everyone seems to be always snacking...

And well, when you’re at school, you’ve got what you’re sent with - and there is really only that crazy period between 3:15 and 5:30pm when they ask for snacks until dinner.

I mean, at least this is what they are eating...

Start by browning off some chicken thighs ( I bought these ones from @delishdeliveries with the skin on and the bone in). 

Sauté with 2 brown onions and a head of garlic. Season and then add cherry tomatoes, passata and thyme. Transfer to a 180 degree oven for 45 minutes. 

I served mine with a mash of potatoes, spinach and more garlic 🧄 No vampires here 😝

Shari from GoodFoodWeek

GoodFoodWeek started in 2008 as a way of sharing recipes with uni friends and family who were spread near and far. It has evolved over the years to contain my ramblings as I’ve searched for a house, planned the perfect veggie patch, stumbled through farmer’s markets with my eye half open (because you need to be there at 6am to get the fresh eggs), had babies, gathered family and friends around a shared table, laughed out loud and enjoyed life to the fullest!
