Homemade Cucumber Dill Dressing

I'm keeping cool with simple foods.

Have you ever been to a restaurant that served a wedge of lettuce as the salad?

Although the salad may be simple, the dressing is usually fabulous.

My homemade cucumber sour cream ( and vegan alternative) dressing is one of those dressings! It's rich and delicious and tastes best with just plain green lettuce. Personally, I used spears of organic romaine lettuce garnished with organic mint ( that I brought in from the garden), and a little freshly grated Parmesan. I then drenched the lettuce in my cucumber dressing and devoured. It looked simple, but tasted elegant! Of course the dressing is also gluten free.

The weather has been so hot ( over 100 yesterday), I have not felt like cooking.Assemble Ingredients

It was so easy. I just whizzed up the ingredients for the dressing in the blender and ate this salad as a meal. It was refreshing and light yet surprisingly filling! There is nothing like the taste of real homemade dressing without all the chemicals and salt!

Variation: Sometimes I cut up halves of fresh avocado and add it to the salad.

How to :

Whiz all of the ingredients in the blender until smooth .

Serve immediately over romaine lettuce
