Delicious! Optional adjustements: Prepare homemade Red Wine Vinaigrette (for 4 servings); also, substitute all watermelon (for cantaloupe) and pine nuts (for pistachios), if desired; throw in a handful of fresh mint for extra flavor

Fantastic salad!!! The ingredients sounded like a strange combination, but they worked together delightfully. We decided to try it while on vacation at the beach and it was perfect. Will definitely make this again.
