Cucumber recipes

A scrumptious salad made with millet, black beans, cucumbers and juicy tomatoes.

Bought a small bag of mini cucumbers, made this pickle recipe, and it was sweet, a bit sour and crunchy. Delicious with most of the meals.

I love the freshness of the dressing and always add extra feta and olives of course! Yum!

This recipe is easy, cheap, nutritious, and my four kids (age 1,2,4, and 5) all eat 2 or 3 of them each time I make it. The first time I made it, I had to double the recipe in a hurry because everyone ate so much. It's even good without sauce.

This Greek stye salad uses quartered cherry tomato, after sitting for half an hour, spin most of the juice out, which makes a not watery salad, then reduce the juice with other spices to create a tangy dressing, and the black olives, cucumbers and feta cheese together create this flavorful, succulent, and refreshing salad.

Eat with Indian or Lebonese style flat breads. Great as a side with barbequed lamb.
