Wash the cucumbers thoroughly, then peel them in alternating strips to create a decorative effect. Slice the cucumbers into thin rounds and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Thinly slice the red onion into half-moons and add them to the bowl with the cucumbers.
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the mix.
Chop the fresh dill finely and sprinkle it over the vegetables.
In a small mixing bowl, combine ranch dressing and Greek yogurt. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Pour the creamy dressing over the cucumber mixture. Toss gently to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated.
Season the salad with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss again to distribute the seasoning evenly.
Cover the salad with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container, then refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish.
