Everything Cucumber

Smashed Asian Cucumber Salad

Stop everything! I finally tried that viral Smashed Cucumber Salad and I’m officially obsessed. It’s so crunchy, a little spicy, and honestly the most refreshing thing I’ve ever eaten. It’s going to be my go-to side dish for every single BBQ this summer.

Pro tip: Use Persian cucumbers if you can find them—they stay way crunchier, and don’t forget a splash of toasted sesame oil!

Easy Fridge Dill Pickles

Okay, girl, I always thought pickling was a whole “grandma project,” but these 24-hour Fridge Pickles are a game-changer! No canning, no stress. I made a jar yesterday and they are already so tangy and perfect. I’m thinking of adding some fresh jalapeños to the next batch for a little heat. You’ll never buy store-bought again!

Creamy Cucumber & Dill Salad

Remember that creamy salad we used to have at family reunions? I found a lightened-up version that tastes exactly like childhood but feels so much fresher. It’s so dreamy with Greek yogurt instead of heavy mayo. I’m literally eating it straight out of the bowl right now. It’s the perfect “I don’t want to cook” dinner vibe!
