yum, I LOVE cucumber yogurt sauce. I also make yummy cucumber salad. I cut them up (peel them so I still see a little green) and add sliced red onion. In a cup I add equal amounts of water and white vinegar, a few spoons of sugar, salt & pepper. COver the cucumbers w it and let sit for a while. It's so light and refreshing (kind of like pickles).

Re: Recipes with cucumbers

Cucumber Sandwiches

-Slice cucumbers into thin slices

-Get a small loaf of pumpernickel bread (or cut the large pieces of bread in quarter sized pieces)

-Swipe a small amount of butter or vegetable spread on each piece of bread

-Add the cucumber slice on top of the buttered bread

-Top with a small sprig of fresh dill

Re: Recipes with cucumbers

Also I love to just slice up cucumbers into sticks and sprinkle with a small amount of salt and eat. They are SOO good.


You can also make cucumber, red onion and tomatoe salad.
