INGREDIENTS

For the Salad

1 lb (450g) cooked shrimp, peeled & deveined
2 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced (optional)
2 tbsp fresh dill or parsley, chopped

For the Creamy Dressing

1/2 cup sour cream OR Greek yogurt
2 tbsp mayonnaise (for richness)
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
Salt & pepper to taste
Optional: a pinch of Old Bay or paprika for extra flavor

INSTRUCTIONS & METHODS

STEP 1 — Prep the Veggies

Thinly slice the cucumbers, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the red onion if using. Add to a large mixing bowl.

STEP 2 — Add the Shrimp

Make sure your shrimp are cooked, chilled, and patted dry.
Add them to the bowl with the vegetables.

STEP 3 — Mix the Dressing

In a smaller bowl, whisk together:

sour cream or Greek yogurt
mayonnaise
lemon juice
garlic powder
onion powder
salt & pepper
Taste and adjust — more lemon for tang, more salt for flavor.

STEP 4 — Combine

Pour the creamy dressing over the shrimp and vegetables.
Gently toss until everything is coated beautifully.

STEP 5 — Chill

Refrigerate 20–30 minutes.
This lets the cucumbers crisp up and the flavors blend perfectly.

STEP 6 — Serve

Serve chilled on its own…
or over lettuce…
or with crackers…
or as the most refreshing summer lunch ever.

HISTORY

Cucumber salads have been a classic in Eastern European and Mediterranean homes for centuries — cool, crunchy, refreshing, and perfect for warm climates. Adding shrimp is a more modern American twist, inspired by coastal seafood dishes.
