Vegan Cucumber Salad

Cucumbers are incredibly cooling and hydrating, making them perfect for the warmer months. They also supply antioxidants, fiber, vitamins K and C, magnesium, and potassium. And let’s not forget about their satisfying crunch!

Dill adds a fresh, herby element and is the perfect pairing for cucumbers!

It’s the perfect plant-based side for BBQs and beyond! Try it paired with our Easy Grillable Veggie Burgers, Simple French-Style Potato Salad, Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Tomato Soup, and/or Easy Zucchini Fritters.

Red onion is the sweetest of the onions, making it the best option for salads. But if you’re looking for something even milder, you can soak the onion (and garlic) in boiling water to decrease its intensity.

1-2 tsp maple syrup (to balance out the flavor)
1/4 cup finely chopped dill
1 medium cucumber, halved lengthwise, thinly sliced (~2 cups as recipe is written)
