I simply had to share this with everyone! If served with some good, crusty bread, this soup, which is more akin to a stew, is filling enough to serve as a full dinner. The meat has a North African flavor because to the spices, acidity of the lemon, and apricots.

So refreshing and unexpected taste!! We served feta cheese on the side. So easy!!!
Tasty. I added less balsamic vinegar because there was lots sitting in the bottom of my bowl. Was nice to dip bread in though.
simple and tasty. I cut it in half because there are only two of us, but we both liked it.
I added a half cup red onion’
A tasty, quick to make summer side dish. Flavor to calories ratio is super!
We both liked this, but did have to add more sugar to the vinegar. Next time I will use Splenda.
I used local cucumbers and made a Lemon-Lime Vinaigrette that went over it. It was refreshing with the sour of lemon-lime and sweet of the watermelon. Excellent salad on a summer day to go with hamburgs and potato salad.
Not bad, but needs something. Mint, maybe?
Very refreshing salad. I added some Grapefruit Balsamic and pepper, that made it pop.
Very refreshing, easy on the calories salad. I used white balsamic so the color was just great. Also added some feta, as others suggested. Nice change of pace salad, thank you.
I absolutely love this recipe I make it all the time it’s very refreshing in the summer?
This was pretty weird. The flavor combinations sounded good but nobody actually enjoyed it.
Refreshing summer salad. I topped it with feta cheese just before serving.
I love this salad, I use white balsamic vinegar its not as overpowering.
This was a great salad. Very refreshing. I didn’t use the sugar because watermelon is sweet enough.
It was a wonderful treat for my class on a hot sunny day!!!!!!! I think that it could have just one little detail changed though, I would have put less balsamic vinegar on the watermelon and cucumber. Other than that it was a wonderful dish!!!!! 😀 🙂 😛
Wow! This is a beautiful salad with an amazing fresh flavor. It was perfect for our Memorial Day BBQ. I did add a little Feta but I must say it was perfect without it. Every one enjoyed it!
Loving it! Added fresh mint then red onions soaked in lime juice. As for the balsamic vinegar and salt, added to each individual portion to their liking.
Used a really excellent (expensive) balsamic plus some feta. No sugar. Just a few grinds of salt. Poured in balsamic until it looked good. A half cup would have been too much. Was excellent and refreshing salad that used up some of the massive amount of cucumbers I have.
good, but don’t go crazy with the balsamic!
Added feta. It was ok. Though it did get a lot of compliments at the cookout we brought it to.
