Creamy Cucumber Tomato Salad

Creamy Cucumber Tomato Salad is a quick side dish made with a straightforward sour cream dressing. It goes well with almost any main course and is quite simple to create!

I was wanting this crisp and energizing salad over the weekend because of the unusually mild weather (spring and summer can't come soon enough!). My traditional cucumber-tomato salad now has a creamy and warming twist, and it couldn't be simpler!
