Watermelon, Tomato and Cheese Salad image

What's the watermelon doing in this recipe? That's what I asked myself too, but it's an awfully good combination! I've made this several times, and it's based off of a recipe I cut out of the NY Times a while ago. Really nice for a spring or summer side dish.

I added some grilled chicken to this salad and it was a great addition. It made the salad more filling and flavorful.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover watermelon. I had a half of a watermelon left over from a party, and this salad was the perfect way to use it up.
