Ingredients:
1 watermelon
2 cups arugula
Olive oil
Salt

2. Place on hot grill pan. Grill each side about 3 minutes until grill marks appear; transfer to a plate and season with salt.

3. To put your salad together add your baby arugula on a serving plate, followed by a grilled slice of watermelon in the center, and top with a tablespoon of crumbled cheese. Add another watermelon slice and another tablespoon of cheese.

4. Finish each salad with a very light drizzle of balsamic reduction. Serve immediently and enjoy!
