Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large cucumbers
  • 4 strips of bacon
  • 1/4 cup red onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon until crispy, then chop into small pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, slice the cucumbers and add chopped red onion and dill.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix sour cream and apple cider vinegar.
  4. Pour the dressing over the cucumber mixture, add chopped bacon, and toss gently.

Notes

Opt for English cucumbers for a less bitter taste. If using regular cucumbers, peeling them can improve texture. Consider using Greek yogurt as a lighter dressing alternative.
