What a unique and refreshing salad this is--and a calorie bargain, too. Made it exactly as directed, except used only a quarter of a red onion because that was all I had in the house. Interesting flavor combinations; watermelon becomes less fruit-like and more vegetable-like. Yum. Will make again. - 6/21/12
