Cucumbers!

[Christy]

I found the simplest dish I can make with cucumbers and the tastiest too. I love this so much I've been eating it every day. I'm sure there's a possibility I'll get bored but for now it works for me :)

Large cucumber chopped in bite size pieces
Bunch of scallions shopped
Several spriggs or fresh Dill

Mix a cup of warm water with 1/2 tsp of raw honey and then add 1/2 cup Braggs vinegar. Add mixture to he cukes.

I refrigerate over night and it's really good. I make sure I drink the leftover juice too. Been thinking about trying avacado mixed with the sauce but not sure.

Sounds great! I'll have to try it soon.

I do something similar to this -- but use way less water ... I sometimes add tomatoes -- adds a nice flavor. I have added avocado (not marinating overnight tho ... just before I eat it).

You're right - it is simple and totally delicious!

simple and delicious. It sounds like it would work with zucchini/squash too.

MMMmmmm! I'd like that with sweet potato shreds added in, maybe forgo the scallions and replace with chopped mizuna for a light kick.
Thanks for sharing it. Reminds me I need to get some dill seed for the garden too.

Great ideas! I'm going to have to try some of the variations you've suggested :)

I'm not sure what mizuna is...a pepper? I'm going to have to google it.

That is a mustard green. A pretty plant, me thinks. It's a little milder than a broadleaf mustard green. I use it as a substitute for peppers, which I am not supposed to eat.
Here is a mizuna start. The frilly one.

I too have been on a cucumber kick. Will definatley try some of these--they all sound so good.

Sounds good.
I love cucumbers as well. I have been enjoying thinly sliced cucumber with fresh lime juice and sea salt...if you like tangy then it is just YUMS:throwhearts:

I love cucumbers. Any way of eating them is good. Those are all yummy recipes. Cucumbers have made me grow more silky hair and more hair at that, not that I needed more but makes your hair, skin and nails grow and look good. :)

I make this too.

Raw grated beets are also delicious with the honey and Braggs.

this thread is really timely as my two cucumber plants are almost ready to start harvesting from.
