Good and easy to make. I followed the recipe as written, using sour cream instead of yogurt as I had sour cream in the fridge. I also used olive oil instead of sunflower as that is what I had. Very tasty cucumber salad.

Tagged in Veg@n Swap 8-09. Cukes are not a fav around here, but we have tons coming from our CSA. So I decided to try this. I used a purple onion, a large garlic clove, yogurt, 1 T vinegar, 1 T olive oil and honey. I also shook a little dill on it and it came out great! The sauce is a hit and miss, taste and add more type of thing. I tasted it before putting the honey or dill in and was glad after I put them in. I might only use garlic powder next time bcz the garlic gave it too much of a bite for me.

Mmmm, this salad is a definite winner! I luv how simple, easy and quick it is to put together and its OUTSTANDING taste! The yoghurt, garlic and cucumber go great together and make for a creamy, crisp, spicy salad experience. I used only 1 clove of garlic, but after letting the salad marinate in the fridge for half a day that gave the salad quite some bite. Yum! Im sure this will be made time and time again in my house. THANKS SO MUCH for sharing this winner of a recipe with us, Bellinda! Made and reviewed for Veg'n'Swap#13 August 09.

Made as directed except for using 1 tablespoon dill. And it was plenty good! Thanks for a delish side. Thanks!

This was very tasty! I think my cucumber and onion must have been huge, though, as the amount we had could easily serve 4-6 as a side!! I used homemade yogurt, which is a bit runnier than storebought and/or sour cream, and next time I won't as my dressing was a bit watery. Thanks for posting, this is a great variation on my usual vinegar/salt/sugar cucumbers . Made for Veg*n Swap #13.

We really enjoy cucumber salads and this one was great! I did double the recipe, used sour cream instead of yogurt, olive oil instead of sunflower oil and dried dill. Added about a teaspoon of sugar and eyeballed the amount of dill. Very yummy and easy to make! Thank you Bellinda for sharing this recipe.
