Ingredients:

Serving

3 tbsp champagne vinegar
3 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp chopped fresh mint leaves , from about 3 or 4 sprigs
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup grapeseed oil
1 head arugula, soaked to remove all grit , stiff spines of leaves removed, dried in a salad spinner, and torn into bite-sized pieces
1 small red onion, sliced thin
1 small seedless watermelon , such as crimson sweet (or your choice , as long as the seeds are removed) cut into 1-inch cubes or into 1-inch spheres with a melon baller
3 oz feta cheese, cubed

Directions:

Prepare vinaigrette just before use. Through the feed opening of a running blender, add 1 at a time: champagne vinegar, lemon juice, chopped mint, salt and pepper. Leaving the blender running, add the oil in a slow stream. Adjust seasoning, to taste, with salt and pepper.
Toss together arugula and onion. Fold in watermelon. Gently stir in enough of the vinaigrette to coat. Top with feta cheese. Serve with any extra dressing on the side.
