Servings 10
Calories 45kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped cucumber see note below
- ¾ cup sour cream I used light
- 1 heaping tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- ¾ teaspoon dried dill or 2 teaspoons fresh dill
- 2 green onions chopped (white and light green parts only)
- salt and pepper to taste
- milk if needed to thin the dressing
Instructions
- Place all ingredients, except the milk, into a blender or small food processor and blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings accordingly. Feel free to more dill, or even another herb.Depending on the moisture content of your cucumber, you might need to add a splash of milk to thin out the dressing.
Notes
Cucumber: If using a regular cucumber, remove the seeds before chopping it. I also partially peel it, leaving on about half of the skin. If you're using an English cucumber, you can leave the skin on and you can leave the seeds in.
Variations: Feel free to add in any other herbs that you like. Fresh basil or parsley would both be great. You could also add in a small clove of minced garlic before blending the dressing.
