| a real easy way to do cucumbers is to pee, slice and gently coat with light coating of sour cream and sprinkle lightly with dehydrated mint (finely minced fresh if you have it). They eat them this way in Iran and they're very good with any mediterranean or middle eastern foods. |

This one is my favorite those I do not make it. My sister does and then I take it home.

I know I hate when a recipe calls for peeing  
That sounds really refreshing. Probably a little more figure friendly too. Thanks !

| Went browsing and thought I'd share my recipe for Creamy Cucumber Salad. I "peel" the cucumbers and slice them (circles), add thin sliced onions and dice up tomatos. Mix all and season with salt and pepper and Lemon Pepper to taste. Mix in Ranch Dressing, toss and chill. Mmmmmm good! Very easy A variation is to not use the Ranch Dressing but use Italian Dressing and about a tablespoon of vinegar. Toss and chill. |

That's like Raita...only I think they substitute plain yogurt for sour cream. We also make a version with fresh dill instead of mint. |

| If you peel, slice your cuke then place on papertowel to absorb some of the liquid it makes the cuke salad creamier. |
