If you're like me you have WAY too many cukes growing...

Here is a recipe that can easily get you past the over abundance of your cucumber plants and this is a very good, nice, cool cucumber salad!!

Sour Cream Cucumber Salad

3 medium cucumbers, peeled (or not) and slice thin 1/8 to 1/4"
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c. finely chopped green onions
1 T. White vinegar
Dash of pepper
1/4 c. reg. or light sour cream

Sprinkle the cucumbers with the salt and let sit for 15 mins. Drain. Add onions, vinegar and pepper. Just before serving add sour cream. Very yummy.

Yield: 6 servings

Please feel free to add any cucumber recipes!! I'm always looking for alternative ways to use my cukes!! Thanks!!
 
Oh Yeah! I've been eating them that way for 62 yrs! And yes they are GOOD! A garnish of fresh chives makes it even better.

Oh and chick4kids I have a thread going about fermented dill pickles. Check it out. I taste tested them yesterday. Get ready to throw out all your store bought pickles!!!

Thanks! I was just trying to remember exactly how my mom makes her cuke salad, and I saw this recipe. I think she adds dill to hers, though. I'll definitely give this recipe a try!
 
Our recipe is just a bit different. It uses mayo, vinegar and just a bit of sugar. Oh, a a tad of dill weed, too.
In fact, we had it for supper last night and when Dh saw it, he said he had just been thinking about this cucumber salad.

Thanks so much for sharing your recipe. I hope to give it a try next week.
