Confreda's Own Cucumbers are on Sale!
Summer really is finally here.
Cucumbers are finally coming in strong and that calls for a lot more recipes.
Cucumbers have always been a classic snack item in my family. Growing up, we could head straight out into the field, do a quick visual inspection on the crops and then dive into a cucumbers. Out in the field, the only thing you can really it on its own is a cucumbers. You could add a little salt or peppers, but that is not necessary. While cucumbers make a great snack, they also can get a little sickening. This recipe is very similar to one I used to eat growing up. It captures the freshness and energizing flavor of the cucumber while adding a nice sweet zingy dressing and fresh vidalia onions.
