Cucumber

RECIPE: Marinated Cucumbers

We visited Hatteras in July because an old college buddy of mine was there with her family. Since she lives in Oregon, I don't get to see her too often. While we were there, her family invited us over for dinner. Karen, my friend, and her husband, Steve, were the cooks. They made these wonderful, refreshing marinated cucumbers that we absolutely loved. In fact, I liked them so much, I've taken them to about three different potlucks since July!

This isn't a very good recipe for diabetics or people watching their carbs, however. Next time I make this dish, I'm going to try using Splenda.

3 large cucumbers
1 medium onion
2 Tbsp. salt
1-1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cup vinegar (apple cider or white)

Slice the cucumbers and onions thin, add the salt and cover with water for at least 2 hours. Drain, but don't rinse. Add the sugar and vinegar and refrigerate until ready to serve.
