Tuesday eating from your yard tip~we are entering the cucumber glut season. Of course there are cucumber sandwiches and pickles. My two favorite are blended to a pulp and added to limeade with vodka optional or slices mixed into yogurt, mint, cumin, onions (or substitute mint and chopped green chili peppers). How about peeled and cut into 1.5″ slices then use a melon baller to create a little cup that you can fill with a cream cheese herb mix or my friend Susan Hendricks Dinsdale mixed the cream cheese with Italian dressing and topped them with a halved tomato. Water served with cucumber slices a refreshing thirst quencher. To also use the mounting tomatoes, green peppers and newly harvested onion and garlic in your kitchen slice and dice all your excess veggies into little cubes and mix in a little basil and basalmic vinegar~yummy salad. Now get creative, get messy and eat up the cucumbers!
