Since watermelon has a very high water content, this salad can become soggy if it sits for too long so this recipe does not stand up well to being made ahead. However, you can easily prep all your fruits, make the dressing, and dice or crumble your cheese and keep them in separate containers, tossing together right before serving to save some time. Just be sure to stir the dressing well before adding it to the salad.
