½ cup sour cream

1 tablespoon cider vinegar

1 tablespoon sugar

½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Prepare the Veggies:

Make the Dressing:
In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, cider vinegar, sugar, and black pepper until smooth.

Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss until well coated.

Chill & Serve:
Refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld.

Notes

Make Ahead: This salad is perfect to prepare ahead of time—just chill and serve when ready.

Custom Add-ins: Add bacon bits, sunflower seeds, or dried cranberries for extra flavor and texture.

Cheese Tip: Shredded sharp cheddar adds great flavor contrast.

Lighter Version: Use Greek yogurt in place of sour cream or mayo for a healthier twist.
