When I first thought about this flavor combination, my forehead wrinkled – for ME to think an ingredient amalgamation strange really says something.
Sweet corn, watermelon, oregano????????? Sure, lime juice and feta mixed with either corn OR watermelon sounds great – but all together…hmmm.
As it turns it, the mixture is amazingly delish! It’s fresh, it’s fragrant, and it’s perfect for the Indian Summer afternoons!
