Ingredients:
1 8-10 inch garden cucumber
salt
A spoonful of mayonnaise
A spoonful of Greek yogurt
Chopped red onions (pickled or raw)
Fresh or frozen dill
pepper
Directions:
Peel the cucumber. Cut it in half lengthwise and then chop it into 1/4 inch slices. Salt it and let it sit for 30 minutes. Blot dry with a paper towel.
In a bowl, mix the cucumber, mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, red onion, and pepper.
Let marinate in the fridge for a few hours or until ready to eat!
Notes:
Garden dill freezes excellently and can be used fresh all year round. I love to harvest my dill once a year and then store it in the freezer for easy use all year!
