Ingredients in creamy cucumber dill salad

Whole milk greek yogurt

One of my favorite kitchen ingredients! Whole milk greek yogurt adds some creaminess to this recipe without the excess calories from fat that would be present if using mayo.

Red wine vinegar

Fresh dill

Dried dill would work…but I will say that fresh dill yields the best results!

Garlic powder

Salt

Sliced Cucumbers

Thinly sliced Red onion

Equipment Needed

Mixing bowls with lids

I LOVE these mixing bowls for food prep and storage!

Instructions

Step 1: Add yogurt, red wine vinegar, dill, garlic powder, and salt to a small mixing bowl and stir to combine

Step 2: Cover with an airtight lid and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight
I find the flavor is BEST if allowed to sit for a bit…but you could totally dive right in

Step 3: Thinly slice cucumber and red onion

Step 4: Add ~2-4 tbsp of yogurt sauce per cup of veggies depending on taste preferences

Step 5: If meal prepping – store veggies in an airtight container separate from the yogurt sauce so they don’t get soggy! Chop and assemble at meal times.

Add this recipe as a side to these healthy turkey burgers!
