Ingredients

Buttermilk Ranch

  • 3/4 Cup Sour Cream
  • 1/2 Cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/4 Cup Buttermilk
  • 1/4 Cup Fresh Chives finely chopped
  • 2 Tbsp Freshly-Squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • Freshly-Cracked Black Pepper to taste
  • 1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/4 Tsp Dried Dill
  • 1 Tsp Dried Parsley

Creamy Cucumber Salad

  • 1 Large Cucumber cut into thin slices
  • 1/4 Tsp Salt
  • 1/4 Cup Buttermilk Ranch or more if you'd like
  • 1/2 Tbsp Everything Bagel Seasoning or more if you'd like

Optional Garnishes

  • Fresh Herbs like chives or parsley
  • Black Pepper
  • Red Pepper Flakes

Instructions

Buttermilk Ranch

  • Add all of the ingredients to a mixing bowl, and whisk together until evenly combined.
  • Let the dressing sit for about 5 minutes until tasting, then adjust seasonings to your liking (i.e. add more herbs, more salt, etc.). It's important to let the dressing rest so that the flavors can really meld!

Creamy Cucumber Salad

  • While the buttermilk ranch is resting, CAREFULLY use a mandoline slicer to cut your cucumber into thin slices.
  • Add the cucumber slices to a mixing bowl and sprinkle with the salt. Mix well.
  • Then, add in the ranch dressing and everything bagel seasoning. I provided measurements as a guide, but you can add as little or as much as you like.
  • Mix the cucumber with the dressing and seasoning until all of the slices are coated. Garnish with any herbs or spices that you like.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Save the rest of the Buttermilk Ranch dressing in the refrigerator for 4-5 days!
  • If you'd prefer to use store-bought ranch dressing here, feel free to do so.
  • You can use any cucumber you like here, such as English cucumbers or garden cucumbers. 
  • I recommend making this salad right before serving for best freshness!
