BOWL OF CREAMY CUCUMBER SALAD ON A BLUE AND WHITE TOWEL

Why We Love This Recipe

This salad holds a lot of nostalgia for me. My Mom used to make a version of this with simply cucumbers and red onions. My family is not a fan of raw red onions so my recipe omits the onions.

This salad pairs perfectly with summer BBQ foods that are spicy and heavy. It adds that extra coolness with a pop of freshness from the crispy cucumbers, tomatoes, and fresh dill.

And the best part about this salad is that it’s super simple to make and is ready in minutes. It can also be made in advance.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS TO MAKE CREAMY TOMATO CUCUMBER SALAD
  • English Cucumber – I prefer English cucumbers over traditional garden cucumbers but if your garden is full of cucumbers, definitely use them for this salad.
  • Cherry Tomatoes – I like to use heirloom cherry tomatoes because they are sweeter than red tomatoes and the different colors pop in this salad.
  • Fresh or Frozen Corn – If you have fresh corn, cook it and cut it off the cob. If you choose to use frozen corn, be sure to thaw it in the refrigerator before adding it to the salad.
  • Greek Yogurt and Sour Cream – I like to use half yogurt and half sour cream, but they can certainly be substituted for each other if you only have yogurt or sour cream on hand.

Let’s Make Creamy Cucumber Tomato Salad

  1. Slice cucumbers.
  2. Dice tomatoes in half or in quarters depending upon how large they are.
  3. Mix the sauce ingredients.
  4. Layer cucumbers, tomatoes, and corn in a flat baking dish.
  5. Cover the vegetable with the sauce.
  6. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours up to overnight.
  7. Transfers to a serving bowl and serve cold.
