A twist on the traditional German cucumber salad or Gurkensalat. Refreshing and so tasty! If you like pickled cucumbers, then you are going to love this salad. The German Cucumber Salad is made with cucumbers, red onion, dill and either a tangy vinegar-sugar dressing or a creamy sour cream dressing. I love dill pickles so I went for the vinegar-sugar dressing. And I added quinoa, it’s protein-rich, it’s full of health benefits and it’s delicious with fresh cucumbers. I think quinoa adds a really nice texture and balances out the sharpness of the vinaigrette.
