This festive red, white and blue salad of sweet summer fruit, contrasted with salty feta cheese in an olive oil and lemon dressing, is ideal for a cookout where it serves as a quenching counterpoint to grilled proteins and spicy fare.

Make ahead: The salad can be assembled in advance up until adding mint, and refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 8 hours.
