CREAMY VEGGIE SALAD

This is a super easy summer salad recipe because you can use whatever veggies you have on hand or that are on sale, which makes it budget-friendly!  I often make it with just cucumbers, tomatoes, and chopped onion when the cucumbers are prolific in my garden.  For the pictured salad, I used broccoli, cucumbers, raw zucchini, celery, tomatoes, and chopped onion.


 6 cups fresh veggies, cut in bite sized pieces
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 tablespoons natural yogurt Ranch dressing (We like Bolthouse Farms) or light Ranch
3 tablespoon natural light mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh dill weed or 1/2 teaspoon dried
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
salt or celery salt, to taste (opt.)


Place prepared veggies in a large bowl.  Combine Ranch dressing, mayonnaise, dill weed, pepper, and salt if desired in a small bowl.  Pour over veggies and stir until well coated.  Serve immediately or refrigerate.  Makes 6-8 servings.
