You can't beat an Easy Cucumber Salad for summer. This salad is loaded with crisp cucumbers, carrots, colorful bell peppers, red onions and fresh dill and it's tossed with a tangy vinaigrette! This mayo-less salad is perfect for your next summer party!
I’ve always been a fan of an easy cucumber salad for summer. I love ones with a mayo or sour cream dressing, but during the summer when it’s hot I usually tend to make mine with a simple vinaigrette dressing.
I also loved my cucumber salads loaded. Not just cucumbers and onion, but shredded carrots and lots of colorful bell peppers.
This is a nice and healthy cucumber salad. It’s got your daily dose of veggies times 2.
It’s dressed with a vinaigrette dressing. No mayo or sour cream here, so it’s perfect for outside summer parties and picnics.
It’s crunchy, colorful and so easy to make.
