A refreshing salad with crisp cucumbers, red onions, cherry tomatoes, fresh dill, and a creamy, tangy dressing.
Ingredients
Scale:
4 medium cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup fresh dill, chopped
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
Start by preparing your cucumbers. Wash them thoroughly, then slice them thinly using either a sharp knife or a mandoline for even cuts.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and chopped dill. Toss them gently to mix.
In a separate bowl, prepare the dressing. Add the Greek yogurt, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, lemon juice, and honey/maple syrup (if using). Whisk these ingredients together until smooth and creamy.
Season the dressing with salt and black pepper to taste.
Pour the dressing over the cucumber mixture in the large bowl. Gently toss everything together until the vegetables are well coated with the creamy dressing.
Let the salad rest in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving.
When ready to serve, give the salad a quick stir, adjusting seasoning if necessary.
