Ingredients

  • 1 English cucumber sliced as thin as possible (I like to use a mandolin to make prepare this fast but a knife will do the trick too)
  • 1/4 red onion sliced thin
  • 1/2 tablespoon salt
  • 1/3 cup sour cream or coconut yogurt for dairy-free
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • pinch monk fruit granulated, optional
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill chopped, or 1 tablespoon dried
  • pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Toss the cucumber and onions with salt and let stand in a fine mesh strainer for 45 minutes. Rinse and pat dry.
  • Add the sour cream, vinegar, monk fruit, and dill. Toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
