The 4th of July (Fourth of July).

July 4th every year is a federal holiday here in America because it is the Independence Day, and thankfully it is in the heart of summer. The weather is (generally) good and sunny, and typically friends and family will meet up and celebrate with lots of food and fun activities. With COVID, things changed; there were fewer to no gatherings during July 4th, 2020. But currently, with the vaccine (in 2021), life is slowly returning to normal. Glory be to God!

Americans love the 4th of July fun; it is a day to unwind and enjoy the company of those you love. My kids always look forward to this day; they dress up in “American outfits” (aka patriot outfits) and ready to have fun!

The size of these appetizers depends solely on you. I like it a little bigger so that one would be enough for each adult; in that case, I use an egg ring.

  • Drizzle a slight balsamic vinegar reduction for more flavor as well as color.
  • Use blackberries instead of blueberries or if you do not like blueberries. 
  • Swap feta cheese for goat cheese or blue cheese if it suits your preference. All go well with watermelon.
  • Make this into a fruit kebab instead; for the best fruit kebab, use a smaller block cookie-cutter, block feta, and a skewer. Make sure to include the blueberries.

How to Store Leftover Watermelon Appetizer Bites:

First, if you need to make a large amount of this recipe, do not sprinkle feta cheese on all of them. That way, if you didn’t use them all, you can easily cover the leftover watermelon bites separately (without cheeses) and set it in the fridge for whenever you need them. Remember, mold can easily grow on cheeses. Use cling film to securely cover any leftover!

On the positive side, you may not have any leftovers because these fruit appetizers are that good! My entire family loves and adores this watermelon appetizer with feta and blueberry, so we very rarely have leftovers.
