For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a drizzle of high-quality olive oil or a sprinkle of toasted pumpkin seeds. If you don't have fresh cilantro, mint or basil can be substituted, though they will impart a slightly different flavor profile. To prevent the salad from becoming soggy, add the salt and marinated onions just before serving. For a visually appealing presentation, use a melon baller to create watermelon spheres instead of cubes.
