Summer is officially here!

Welcoming the sun after months and months of dreary weather and temperatures that seemed to change their minds every other day is such a wonderful feeling. To assist in the excitement of entering the outdoors to the smell of fresh cut grass, the transpiration that emanates from just-watered plants, and sweet smells of blooming flowers, Nolas Catering & Events wanted to share a recipe that will surely get your mouth watering and your mood set to enjoy the upcoming weeks of warmth!

Watermelon, Halloumi & Mint Salad to refresh the tastebuds!

-Chop watermelon (small watermelons are great for sweetness; a nice contrast to the saltiness of the halloumi) into large chunks
-Halloumi, chopped into half inch pieces
-Olive oil
-A couple of pinches of Cracked black pepper
-Spritz of Lemon Juice (Optional)
-Balsamic drizzle (Optional)
-Fresh Mint (Full leaves and/or chopped) 

This salad is one of our summer favorites for our small get-togethers; a bright center for our dinner tables and a refreshing taste of summer with all the flavors we tend to associate with the warmth of the season! We cannot wait for our future events with our lovely clients and staff. Stay safe in the heat and enjoy the sun!
