Sweet, juicy watermelon and blueberries go so well with the salty feta cheese. The balsamic glaze adds a tangy and savory note that is surprisingly delicious.
I like to serve this salad on a platter because I used a larger star cookie cutter, but you could certainly use a bowl and toss the ingredients together.
