Ingredients
  

4 cups of fresh watermelon, cut into bite-sized cubes

1 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

2 tablespoons balsamic glaze

Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Toothpicks or small skewers

Instructions
 

Prepare the Watermelon: Start by cutting the watermelon into uniform cubes, approximately 1-inch in size. Make sure to select ripe and juicy watermelon for the best flavor.

    Assemble the Bites: On each toothpick or skewer, stack one cube of watermelon followed by a generous sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese. Add a second watermelon cube on top, creating a mini-layered bite. Repeat until you've assembled all the bites.

      Add Flavor: Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the assembled bites for a tangy finish. If desired, lightly sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each bite to enhance the flavors.

        Garnish: Finish off each skewer with a fresh mint leaf on top for a burst of color and aromatic flavor.

          Chill and Serve: Arrange the watermelon feta bites on a serving platter and chill in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes before serving for a refreshing touch. Serve cold as a delightful appetizer or snack.
