Trial and Error....Watermelon and Blue Cheese Salad

~In the spirit of the 4th of July I made a red-white-and blue salad.  Watermelon and blue cheese.  Tony came to the table and asked what "that" was....I told him and he said it looked like raw tuna with specks.  He could not get over the look. He tried it and said it was ok...if he hadn't seen it before. The after taste of the blue cheese is wonderful, in  my humble opinion....for what that is worth.  Brenn wouldn't even try it.  I will take it to a BBQ and get other opinions at some point! Try it and see what you think!
~Recipe~
1 12-14 lb watermelon(seedless)
2 Tbsp champagne vinegar
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup crumbled blue cheese

Cut the rind off the watermelon and make into triangles  or chunks.  Place watermelon in a large bowl.  In small bowl whisk together the vinegar, oil, salt and pepper, drizzle over the melon. Add the blue cheese and toss carefully through the water melon. Enjoy~
