Creamy Cucumber Salad

I enjoy eating cucumbers especially in the summer.  They are tasty and crispy. So light and refreshing.  I usually just it them in a dressing with vinegar and spices but this recipe caught my eye.
The creamy dressing is basically sour cream with dill, spices, and a splash of vinegar.  Mix them together and coat cucumber slices with the dressing.
The original recipe called for half of a red onion sliced.  Being that the family doesn't like onions, I omitted them and added onion powder to the dressing.
You can serve this salad right away or chill.
