Cool, Crisp, Creamy and Refreshing

Hello Friends~ ~ ~
It seems to be a love or hate thing~ ~cucumbers.
Do you love or hate them?
It's 2 to 1 in our home.
The lovers Win!

I am making a big batch today so I will have some to share
with my neighbor who gave me the cucumbers.
So the Cuisinart came out to play.



I peel mine and cut the ends off.
Then into the Cuisinart to slice
with a 2mm blade.
I cut each one in half so they
fit into the feed tube.


Here they go and Oh don't forget to slice an onion too.





So pretty!



Soak them in cold salted water for about 45 min.
Drain well, I squeeze the water out of them
and pat with paper towels.




How for the recipe for my dressing.



Creamy Cucumber Salad
A few spoons of Hellmann's Mayo
(according to how many cukes you use)
a good quality vinegar to taste
cream to thin the sauce
sugar
salt and black pepper
Mix all with a whip.



Toss the cukes and the onions with
the dressing.



ENJOY!

I love this for breakfast on a hot summers day.
