Zero Point Cucumber

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Slice the Cucumbers: Thoroughly wash your cucumbers and slice them into thin, uniform rounds. Place the sliced coins directly into a large meal prep bowl or storage container.

  2. Whisk the Dressing: In a small measuring cup or bowl, whisk together the white wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped fresh dill, red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, and your optional zero-point sweetener until fully combined.

  3. Toss and Coat: Pour the prepared liquid dressing directly over the sliced cucumbers. Use tongs or a large spoon to toss everything together thoroughly, ensuring every single cucumber slice is glistening and well-coated with herbs and spices.

  4. Chill: Seal the container with a tight-fitting lid and place it into the refrigerator. Let the flavors marinate for at least 30 minutes before diving in. Give it a quick shake or stir before serving to redistribute the seasoned juices.

Storage & Variations

  • Storage: Keep this salad stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 to 5 days. The cucumbers will naturally release more juice as they sit, creating a delicious, tangy pickling liquid in the bottom of the container.

  • Flavor Upgrades: If you want to mix it up and have a few points to spare, this base tastes incredible with a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese, sliced red onions, or a handful of halved cherry tomatoes!
