Ingredients

  • 2–3 cups sliced cucumbers
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled halal beef slices
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash and slice cucumbers into thin rounds. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Stir in the ranch dressing until cucumbers are evenly coated.
  3. Add shredded cheddar cheese and fold gently into the mixture.
  4. Mix in the cooked, crumbled halal beef slices until evenly distributed.
  5. Season with black pepper and top with chopped parsley if using.
  6. Chill for 10–15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Use English or Persian cucumbers for fewer seeds and crisper texture.
  • Pat cucumbers dry before mixing to reduce wateriness.
  • For a lighter version, use low-fat ranch and reduced-fat cheese.
  • Customize with cherry tomatoes, radishes, or shredded chicken.
  • Best served fresh but can be made a few hours in advance.
