Cucumber

1 large - 8 1/4" long
White onion

0.25 cup
Sour cream

4 tbsp
Apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp
Monk Fruit Erythritol Blend

1 tbsp
Salt, sea salt

0.5 tsp
Dill weed, fresh

2 tbsp

Step 1

Use a vegetable peeler to peel some of the skin off the cucumber, but leave some of the skin intact.
Step 2

Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and place in a large mixing bowl with thinly sliced white onion.
Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, apple cider vinegar, sweetener, and fine sea salt.
Step 4

Add the sauce to the cucumbers. Give the mixture a good stir. Be sure to coat all of the ingredients well. The vinegar will help to soften the cucumbers slightly.
Step 5

Then stir in chopped, fresh dill. Eat immediately or serve after refrigerating for a couple of hours. This salad is best eaten on the same day.
