 Creamy Cucumber  Salad – The Perfect Summer Salad


Cucumbers are one of my favorite vegetables and I often eat them with a little salt and pepper as a snack (and I always sneak a few bites when making salads!).

So I love salads that use cucumbers as the base (huge fan of onion, tomato and cucumber salad, and just realized that I’ve never shared my recipe for it, so I’m putting that on my list of recipes to share in the future!).

This creamy cucumber salad is the perfect side dish for a light summer meal. You only need a few fresh kitchen staples (well, the dill may be the only non-staple, but it’s easy enough to find!).

 

And the best part – it only takes a few minutes to mix everything together. So this’ll be EASY to throw together! Just pop it in the fridge while getting the rest of the meal prepared and before you know it, dinner’s done.

    My grandmother made this ever since I can remember, but with sour cream. One thing she did was to slice the cucumbers thin, sprinkling with salt periodically. Cover the bowl with a plate and let sit for at least a half hour. The salt draws out a lot of the cucumber juice which should be poured off before stirring in the sour cream/yogurt. Especially if you’re making this ahead or expecting to have leftovers – it keeps the sauce from getting runny/watery.

    But yea – this is a favorite of mine, too. Super easy and tastes refreshing.
