Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
Dressing
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning, plus extra for topping
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Optional Garnishes
- Sliced radishes
- Halved cherry tomatoes
Instructions
- Prepare the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, everything bagel seasoning, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and thoroughly combined.
- Add vegetables: Add the thinly sliced cucumbers and red onion to the bowl with the dressing. Gently toss everything together, ensuring the vegetables are evenly coated with the creamy dressing.
- Chill and meld flavors: Cover the bowl and place the salad in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes. This chilling step allows the flavors to meld and the salad to cool for a refreshing taste.
- Garnish and serve: Before serving, sprinkle additional everything bagel seasoning on top and garnish with extra fresh dill. Optionally, add sliced radishes or halved cherry tomatoes for a pop of color. Serve cold as a vibrant side dish or part of a brunch spread.
Notes
- Use English or Persian cucumbers for a better texture and fewer seeds.
- For a tangier dressing, add a splash of white wine vinegar.
- This salad pairs wonderfully with grilled chicken, salmon, or as a fresh addition to any brunch menu.
