Ok. This creamy cucumber feta salad is seriously so fresh and delicious. It’s a cucumber and onion salad with a sour cream-based dressing filled with lots of fresh dill and feta cheese. This is so good and a perfect side with for any sandwich or cookout. You’ll love this salad, especially for summer months.
Alright. I love tzatziki sauce. This base of this salad tastes so much like tzatziki. The fresh flavors from the cucumber, the dill, and the feta all go so perfect together.
Equipment You’ll Need
As far as equipment goes, you’ll mainly need a knife, vegetable peeler, large spoon and a large mixing bowl. If you have a mandolin, you can use that too. If you want to use measuring spoons, then you’ll need those too. I usually just “eyeball” it.
Ingredients You’ll Need
English Cucumbers:
I used two large English cucumbers, thinly sliced.
Red Onion:
I used about a half of a red onion, thinly sliced. If you want to use more or less, feel free to do so.
Sour Cream:
This is the main part of the dressing. It gives it that light, airy taste.
Mayo:
The mayo adds a little more flavor and sweetness to the sour cream.
Fresh Dill:
You’ll need about two tablespoons of the fresh chopped dill. You’ll definitely need to use fresh dill instead of dried dill.
Lemon Juice:
The lemon compliments the flavors and cuts down the harshness of the sour cream.
Feta Cheese:
You’ll need about a half cup of crumbled feta cheese. If you want to add more, feel free!
Seasonings:
For seasonings, I used salt, pepper, garlic powder and sugar.
