Last summer, at a party, a friend of mine introduced me to creamy cucumber salad. I spent the rest of the said party snacking on the mentioned cucumber salad. It was delicious! This summer, we’re not exactly having parties, 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 a variety of different things.
This cucumber salad is super easy to throw together for a quick side dish for any pot luck or barbecue, especially if you know someone who loves pickles!
