# Directions:
01 - Rinse cucumbers and green onions under cold water. Trim ends of cucumbers and thinly slice them; peel if preferred. Thinly slice green onions and transfer both to a large mixing bowl.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt (or sour cream), mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, rice vinegar, kosher salt and black pepper until smooth and homogenous.
03 - Pour the dressing over the sliced cucumbers and green onions. Using salad tongs or a large spoon, toss gently until the vegetables are evenly coated.
04 - Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning over the dressed cucumbers and toss lightly to distribute the seasoning without bruising the vegetables.
05 - Adjust seasoning to taste. Garnish with chopped dill if using. Serve immediately for maximum crunch, or refrigerate for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
