This Creamy Vegan Cucumber Salad is perfect for a hot Summer day. Crispy cucumber is combined with red onion, dill, vegan sour cream, and lemon juice.
Of all the vegetables out there, I think cucumber (technically a fruit) is one of my favorites. It is great for sandwiches, salads, and for dipping. It adds a nice crunch to anything you put it in.
This Creamy Vegan Cucumber Salad is perfect for a hot Summer day. The dill dressing for this recipe reminds me of vegan tzatziki, but without the garlic.
I think I've created around five or six cucumber salad recipes, although I forget how many of those I have yet to post. One of my all time favorites is is the Spicy Cucumber Salad, probably because it's spicy and reminds me of the cucumber salads that I've had in Thai restaurants.

This was delicious. I made it with homemade soy yogurt instead of the vegan mayo and used dried dill.

This sounds great! Do you think I could use vegan yogurt instead of vegan sour cream - to cut down on fat and calories?
Willow Moon says
Definitely! I would use the unsweetened plain kind though so that you get a savory flavor instead of a sweet or vanilla taste.
