Cucumber 'n Onion Salad

 Cucumber 'n Onion Salad

    This is a quick little salad I decided to make on the spur of the moment. It's from the Philadelphia Brand Cream Cheese 100th Anniversary Cookbook. The book was published in 1981.  Although I forgot to mix the cream cheese with the cream cheese, and then add the onions and cucumber, it still turned out good. I did also add pepper and dill to the recipe (those modifications will be in Italics). This recipe makes about two servings. You could easily double this recipe. It is perfect for a hot day. Enjoy!

Ingredients: 

3 oz Philadelphia cream cheese (or other brand) softened

1/4 cup sour cream

1/4 tsp celery seed (add more if desired)

dash of salt

1/4 tsp ground pepper

1/4 to 1/2 tsp dill 

1 cup peeled cucumber slices, sliced thinly

1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion rings

Directions:

Mix cream cheese, sour cream and seasonings until well combined. Stir in cucumber and onion, mixing lightly. Chill until ready to serve. Makes about two servings.
