This is the perfect salad to make for a potluck, BBQ, or any gathering. It's so easy to prepare but tastes best when allowing enough time for the tangy, creamy dressing to chill for the best flavor.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 c. mayonnaise
  • 1/4 c. sour cream
  • 1 T. red or white wine vinegar
  • 2 t. Italian seasoning
  • 1 t. olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 t. salt
  • 1/4 t. black pepper
  • 1/8 t. sugar
  • 3 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced

Steps

  1. Dressing:
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, Italian seasoning, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper and sugar. For best results, cover and chill dressing for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours before preparing the salad.
  3. Thinly slice cucumbers and red onions about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Stir the dressing together with the onion and cucumber. Serve immediately, or chill until ready to serve.
  5. 8 servings.
  6. *This salad tastes best when the dressing is made in advance and chilled for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours before serving. Once the salad is assembled, it can be chilled for another 1-2 days before serving, if desired.
