Creamy Cucumber Salad

I just got this in my email from The Biggest Club newsletter. I am SO trying this out on Sunday with our BBQ! It sounds scrumptious!!!
Creamy Cucumber Salad


Typically, this classic salad is made by dressing the cucumbers with full-fat sour cream or heavy cream. We lighten the salad by using reduced-fat sour cream and mixing it with yogurt.



Ingredients

1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream

1/3 cup fat-free plain yogurt

1½ tablespoons white wine vinegar

1½ teaspoons sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

2 large cucumbers, thinly sliced

1 medium Vidalia or other sweet onion, thinly sliced



In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, yogurt, vinegar, sugar, salt (if using) and pepper.

In a medium bowl, combine the cucumbers and onions. Add the dressing and toss to coat well.

Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to blend all the flavors.



Yield: 8 Servings
