Last summer, a friend introduced me to creamy cucumber salad at a party. I spent the rest of the party snacking on the cucumber salad. It was delicious! We do not have parties this summer, but I decided to kick this cucumber salad up a notch by adding my new favorite dressing. Pickle juice ranch!

Pickle juice ranch is my new favorite condiment. Last summer, when I was doing a round of whole 30, I discovered the power of pickles when I was craving something sweet. Adding leftover pickle juice to a homemade ranch dip is delicious and tastes good on various things.

This cucumber salad is super easy to throw together for a quick side dish for any potluck or barbecue, especially if you know someone who loves pickles!
