1. 01

   Puree Watermelon

   Puree watermelon in a blender until completely smooth. Once pureed, pour it through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any seeds, pressing down to extract as much liquid as possible. Set the strained puree aside.

   Make the Vinaigrette

   In a small pan, gently heat the 2 tablespoons of currant jelly just until it melts. Remove it from the heat and let it cool completely.

   Once cooled, add the strained watermelon puree, 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic pepper. Whisk until everything is well combined. Chill the vinaigrette until you're ready to serve; this allows the flavors to meld.

   Assemble and Dress Salad

   In a large bowl, combine the 6 cups salad greens, watermelon cubes, 1/2 cup onion, and 1 cup feta cheese. Give the chilled dressing a good shake to recombine it, then pour it over the salad and toss gently to coat everything.
