Although this watermelon feta salad recipe is just a single serving, you can easily make it for more people using however much watermelon or leafy greens you have on hand. Because of the ingredients in this salad, it might not be best to make too far in advance – there is a lot of moisture between the arugula and the watermelon. However, you could prep the salad components, such as having one container of everything except the watermelon, and adding the watermelon to the salad at the time of consumption.
