A bit too yogurty for my tastes.

The men complained about the vanilla yogurt making it to sweet so will not try again.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong but this didn't seem to have much flavor. It also didn't hold well in the fridge because it got watery after sitting for just a couple of hours. If I make it again, I will probably tweak the recipe a bit and not make it until right before I'm ready to serve it.

I don't feel like I can give this recipe 5 stars since I made some changes, but the base was a great starting point. I substituted plain fat-free Greek yogurt in place of the vanilla yogurt, 1 tsp onion powder instead of the diced onion, and 1 tsp garlic salt in place of the minced garlic. Lastly I added just under 1 tbs of sugar to cut down on some of the sourness of the Greek yogurt. I chopped the cucumbers and made the dressing the night before my potluck, but I kept the dressing in a separate bowl in an effort to avoid soggy cucumber slices. The next morning, I mixed everything together and by lunchtime the flavors had all come together without any sogginess. Very good & will make again.

I had to make a few adjustments, but it turned out delectable. I used low fat plain Greek yogurt instead of vanilla, salted and drained cucumbers first like another reviewer suggested, completely minced the onion in a food processor, and added roughly a tablespoon of rice vinegar. The vinegar cut out the yogurty after taste I'm not a big fan of.

Very good side salad. I read other reviews and made the following changes: wash and cut my cucumbers and tossed salt on them and refrigerated them for a couple hours. Def much better the next day after all the favours run through. A keeper forsure.

No thank you... I made it exactly as written. My family has a cucumber salad recipe that calls for mayo/ vinegar/ sugar / onion salt / celery salt as the dressing so I thought this might be close with the sweet/tangy combo or vanilla yogurt & sour cream... I have to say (IMO) it wasn't even edible.
