Melon and Red Onion With Feta and Pine Nuts image

A first course or nice at a brunch buffet from the Junior League of Salt Lake City, Utah. Sounds interesting. Note: This recipe was titled Melon and Red Onion with Feta and Walnuts, but when I read the ingredients and intstructions it said "pine nuts" so I changed the title. Both sound good to me though!

  • Use a variety of melons: Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of melons in your salad. This will add a variety of flavors and textures to the dish.
  • Slice the melons thinly: This will help the melons to absorb the flavors of the dressing and other ingredients.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way with this salad. Too much dressing can overwhelm the flavors of the melons.
  • Serve the salad chilled: This salad is best served chilled. This will help to keep the melons crisp and refreshing.
