Creamy Cucumber Salad Recipe
3 steps
Prep:10min
This four-ingredient Creamy Cucumber Salad, made with Greek yogurt and fresh dill, is one of my family's favorite summer side dishes.
Change it up! This is a basic recipe, feel free to change it to suit your taste. Here are some variations:
Cucumbers: Regular cucumbers are used here but you can also use English cucumbers or Persian cucumbers, and bonus you don’t have to peel them.
Cream: Swap the yogurt for sour cream or use a combination of sour cream and mayo. You can also use reduced fat yogurt, but I personally think it’s best with full fat.
Slicing Cucumbers: If you don’t have a mandolin, slice them as thinly as possible with a sharp knife.
Add red onion.
Herbs: Swap dill with parsley, tarragon, or chives for a different flavor profile.
Spices: You can add garlic powder and black pepper to taste.
Acid: You can add some white vinegar or fresh lemon juice, for variation.
