Hhhmmm sounds refreshing and very easy to prep! I’ve seen packages of cubed feta and olives in oil being sold in the store so this should be easy to make, and good idea too buy the pre-packed watermelon too! I love watercress, I find myself using watercress whenever I make pork ribs sinigang nowadays! :) Sometimes, nakakasawa na yung
usual vegies on my sinigang, so I’ve tried spinach too, but watercress and labanos are what i’ve been using lately! Hope I don’t offend anybody reading this if I don’t make it the traditional way! :)

linda, I LOVE peaches in salads. So light, sweet and refreshing! As for the mustasa salad, it’s GOOD right? Has all the BRACING flavors of bitter, sour, salty that goes so well with fried and grilled meats and seafood.

If you’re making salads with watermelon again, see if you can obtain the smaller oval, dark green ones. We call them “black beauty” here. Their advantage is firmer flesh. Perfect for grilling too – an added taste dimension and pairs well with a concentrated balsamic vinegar.

Your salad reminds me of spring =). Can’t wait.

Noticed your poll on Philippine reefs. I didn’t know about the Tubbataha Reefs until we visited the California Academy of Science in SFO last year. The underwater displays of this reef found in the Steinhart Aquarium are simply breathtaking. https://www.calacademy.org/academy/exhibits/aquarium/. What a beautiful natural park too – thanks to UNESCO! https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/653. Something to put on the wishlist on the next visit to the Philippines. Mabuhay!
