Creamy Cucumber Salad is a delicious and refreshing side dish. All it takes is a handful of fresh simple ingredients and 15 minutes. This is the perfect addition to your next summer barbecue!
Cool and refreshing recipes are a necessity this time of year and this Creamy Cucumber Salad hits the spot and is a great side to Grilled Honey Balsamic Chicken, this favorite Perfectly Juicy Grilled Steak, and or my Grilled Spinach and Herb Stuffed Pork Chops.
Even though the name of it says creamy, that doesn’t mean it’s unhealthy! This recipe uses Greek yogurt as the base of the dressing and added with all of the seasonings, it is packed with flavor!
Throw this together in less than 15 minutes and this salad will be your new go-to recipe!
To keep cucumber salad from getting watery, start by sprinkling salt on the sliced cucumbers and letting them sit for about 10-15 minutes. Then, rinse them under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. This removes extra moisture.
To store any leftover Creamy Cucumber Salad, put it in a container with a lid and keep it in the fridge. It’s tastiest if eaten within 1-2 days. Just give it a little stir before you have it again to make sure the dressing is spread evenly.
