What do you do with the last of the watermelon that didn't get eaten? You can turn it into a salad! One of the good things about day old watermelon is that it sits in its own juices and becomes more flavorful. When making this salad, it is all about layering everything. Like nachos, no one wants the one chip without the cheese. So, when making this salad, cut everything in half and build it on top of each other. This will give you flavor throughout the whole dish.
