When summer rolls around, we can't get enough cucumber salad. Light and refreshing, the simple side dish is perfect for BBQs and picnics alike. When we're looking to shake things up though, we turn to this creamy version. Instead of the classic vinaigrette, we use a creamy dressing in this recipe (made of lemon juice, Greek yogurt, and dill). The result is a refreshing, herby switch on the staple side that will win over any creamy salad lover. Trust us—one bite and all your future BBQs will be changed forever.
