The 4th of July Watermelon Salad You'll Make Every Year

Today on Chewed Up, Michael Symon and Clinton Kelly welcome guest co-host Janette Donnarumma for a full-on watermelon episode built for July 4th entertaining. She brings two easy summer crowd-pleasers: a watermelon Aperol spritz margarita and a bright watermelon, cucumber, feta, and herb salad served straight out of a carved watermelon bowl.

It is fresh, festive, and exactly the kind of menu that works for backyard hangs, hot weather, and the people who always ask what to bring. Along the way, they get into summer produce, party food, kid-friendly tricks, and why watermelon might be the most underrated ingredient of the season.
