Cucumber, Mustard, and Dill Salad

From the kitchen of Carly

Crisp cucumber slices dressed in a bright mustard vinaigrette with fresh dill. The Dijon gives this simple salad real depth, while the thin cuts let the tangy dressing cling to every bite. Light, refreshing, and endlessly useful as a side.
