Creamy Cucumber Salad

I know this picture is not very pretty- looks can be deceiving. This is one of Ron's favorite side dishes ever besides his precious cheese beans. I love these cucumbers. They work perfectly with a burger hot off the grill or as a light side with a stove top dinner. I sub greek yogurt for mayo and sour cream base to give an extra protein boost. You can add any herbs you like to this dish, but I like to keep this dish simple.

It is so sad we are creeping closer and closer to fall. Good this us Wisconsin folks aren't afraid to grill in our snowsuits.
Ingredients
3 medium cucumbers, peeled and sliced
2 Tbl reduced fat mayo
6 oz greek yogurt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp sugar

Instructions
Mix all ingredients besides cucumbers into a medium bowl. Fold cucumbers into yogurt sauce. Place in cucumbers in a tupperwear container and allow them to chill 2-24 hours (the longer it sits the better the cucumbers and sauce meld together).
