Old Fashioned Cucumber Salad
Our recipe for Old Fashioned Cucumber Salad is a summertime favorite for me. The recipe is so classic to our family that it may appear the year round for any family event. We have an abundance of cucumbers and it is a great time to enjoy this old family favorite. This recipe is so simple, just slice some cucumbers and red onion. Make a delicious sauce out of sour cream, mayonnaise,and a few herbs. Then it goes in the refrigerator to get really cold before serving. Be sure and make enough, the bowl will be empty.

ReplyDeleteI love this salad. Too often I rush the process and it is too wet, but still good.
ReplyDeleteI love a good cucumber salad. Usually I do mine with mayo, vinegar and sugar. I'm excited to try this new way!
ReplyDeleteThis looks good, I never tried cucumber salad made this way. Usually we make them shredded and mixed with garlic and yogurt. Guess we'll need to give this a try :)
