Put a spin on everyone’s classic summer fruit go-to by whipping up watermelon sandwiches for your next warm-weather gathering — this refreshing healthy treat will be a fan favorite. Bite into the crisp, juicy sweetness of fresh watermelon playing against savory garlic and rich goat cheese, all nestled within a chewy ciabatta roll. 

What Other Cheeses Work with Watermelon Sandwiches?

If you’re not a fan of goat cheese, don’t worry, you add most cheeses to these Watermelon Sandwiches. Feta cheese is a classic pairing with watermelon for a reason. Its salty, briny, and tangy flavor provides a fantastic counterpoint to the fruit’s sweetness. But, there’s also mozzarella that’s more subtle featuring a milky, delicate flavor that won’t compete with the other ingredients.
