Wash and dry the cucumbers and carrot.
Using a sharp knife or mandoline slicer, thinly slice the cucumbers into rounds or julienne strips, depending on your preference. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel the carrot and shred it using a box grater. Add it to the cucumbers.
Thinly slice the red onion into half-moons and add it to the bowl with the cucumbers and carrot.
Chop the fresh dill finely and mix it into the vegetable mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cucumber mixture and toss well to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated.
Taste the slaw and adjust the seasoning with more salt or black pepper, if necessary.
Refrigerate the cucumber slaw for at least 15–20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a side dish or light snack. Enjoy!
