Tangy Summer Salad


The very persuasive pickle salesman at the farmers' market last weekend said the magic words -- "These would be great in a dirty martini!" -- and thus talked me into a significant purchase of pickled green tomatoes. Now I like a proper cocktail as much as the next urban twenty-something, but a working woman of 5'2" can only handle so many martinis per week. And so the Tangy Summer Salad above was born.

Ingredients, to taste:
- watermelon chopped to bite-sized cubes
- crumbled feta (on the mild side if possible)
- diced pickled green tomatoes
- blackberries
- balsamic vinegar
- sea salt
- fresh-ish thyme.
