Creamy Dill Cucumbers

Creamy Dill Cucumbers

Last summer, my great friend Emily made a vegetable dip for a party and I. could. not. get enough! Everyone was talking about it and I knew I had to have this recipe. It was garlicky, creamy and super addictive. The ingredient that set it off for me was dill weed.

I couldn’t remember the last time I had used dill and vowed to remedy that ASAP. Besides making this dip, which of course I did, I wanted to find another way to use dill in a quick veggie side dish.

I’m really wishing the weather were a bit warmer today, but since that’s not happening, I’m going to make a light side dish that reminds me of fresh cucumbers in the summer. Cucumbers and dill are a classic combination. I love that this is creamy, packed with flavor, uses only a few ingredients and comes together in just a couple of minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

Thinly slice a cucumber.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Add the sour cream, dill and garlic to a bowl and combine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slowly add the cucumbers and combine, making sure each side of the cucumbers are coated. Thin with a little milk if necessary. I didn’t feel I needed any this time, but have in the past.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How yummy does this look?! It was super refreshing and had me dreaming of summer 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This makes a great side dish and would be great for barbecues and parties since it’s quick, easy and like that veggie dip last summer…addictive!
