This Classic Creamy Cucumber Salad is cool, crunchy, refreshing, and so easy to make. Thinly sliced Persian cucumbers and red onion are tossed with a simple creamy lemon and dill dressing for the perfect summer side dish.
I grew up with my mother making cucumber salad every week. Hers was usually made with a vinaigrette, but sometimes I’m in the mood for something a little creamier.
This version is simple, fresh, and one of those salads you can throw together in just a few minutes. Serve it alongside brunch, at a summer BBQ, with dinner, or honestly just eat it straight from the fridge as a crunchy afternoon snack.
