Listening to Alison Leonard on the Breeze the other day, she was telling of a delicious watermelon/ feta cheese salad, is it mint sauce or Balsamic Vinegar that goes with it , can anyone help!

we had one I threw together last night - baby spinach to go further. So jucy no dressing needed - but mint in the salad too. Was YUMMY!
