When I saw fellow food blogger Alice Currahs blog post last year announcing that she was writing a cookbook, I couldnt have been more thrilled! I have read Alices blog for years and just love her mouth-watering photos and delicious recipes. On top of all that, shes an amazing writer! Although weve never actually met in person, I feel like were friends in real life.
Well, the long-awaited day finally came and I am holding in my hands a copy of Savory Sweet Life, Alices cookbook---hot off the press! Lets just say that I am fighting back the urge to make every recipe at once. So many goodies!
I couldnt think of a better recipe to start off with than Alices Watermelon Feta Salad. Ill admit that I was a little skeptical at first, only because I never thought feta cheese and watermelon would go together. I love watermelon though so I decided to give it a go!
After one bite I knew--- I knew what Alice said was true when she said you could find yourself going back for seconds and thirds. Amen to that. This salad is incredibly addicting and refreshing to say the least.
Go ahead and try this for lunch today.I bet you wont be able to stop eating it either. Thanks, Alice!
