Directions

  • Step 1

    For the whipped feta, pulse Crazy Feta, cream cheese, and lime juice in a food processor until light and creamy. For jalapeño salt, roast jalapeño slices at 500 degrees Fahrenheit 10 to 15 minutes, until lightly charred. Mince jalapeño and pat with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. Stir into Maldon salt.

  • Step 2

    Slice watermelon into ½-inch slices and then cut each slice into quarters. Halve avocados and remove pit. Use a spoon to carefully remove avocado from skin. Cut avocados crosswise into ½ -inch slices.

  • Step 3

    To assemble, layer one piece of watermelon, a smear of whipped feta, one slice of avocado, another of red watermelon, a smear of kalamata hummus, and a heaping spoonful of crab meat. Sprinkle with jalapeño salt to finish. Feel free to portion smaller pieces of watermelon and avocado and layer these into two tiers – it’s all about making sure you get the right portion without the whole thing toppling over.

  • Step 4

    Enjoy!
