Summer gardening is a ton of work but I enjoy it so much. It’s a great way to get me out of the house and the fresh vegetables are so enjoyable. If you aren’t gardening, pick up some fresh vegetables from the farmers market or add it to your grocery pick up and make this salad soon!
How to Make Creamy Cucumber Tomato Salad:
- Slice cucumbers into thin slices. Remove core of tomatoes and cut into bite-sized pieces. Slice onion, thin. Place all in a serving bowl.
- For the dressing you just need mayonnaise, sour cream, salt, pepper and garlic plus some fresh herbs.
- Combine the dressing ingredients in a separate bowl with a whisk.
- Pour over vegetables and stir to mix well. The dressing will seem thick but when it combines with the juicy tomatoes, it’s just perfect.
- Salad can be served immediately or covered and chilled for one hour.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in refrigerator. Best if served within 2 – 3 days.
