CUCUMBERS WITH A KICK
as a kid i was introduced to cucmbers in vinegar but the vinegar taste is far too bitter and unpleasant to me and by tweaking the recipe i have found myself to eat 1-3 whole cucumbers at a time.

CUKE-WITH-A-KICK FINGER SANDWICHES
These are about as far from Grandma's cucumber sandwiches as you're going to get. These babies will light up your spread with their fluorescent red and green color. Don't worry, there's nothing toxic here, it's just red horseradish, cucumber, scallion, and dill. The dill complements the cucumbers perfectly, and the scallions and horseradish give the sandwich some really good kick. My friends go through these things like water because they're so light and poppable. I've learned to make a double batch so I don't wind up back in the kitchen to make more of these during the party.

Steps:
- Peel the cucumber and slice it very, very thin. Lay the cucumber slices out on a sheet of paper towel and cover them with a second sheet. Let stand until the paper towels soak up the cucumber slices' liquid, about 15 minutes.
- Mash the butter, scallions, dill, horseradish, salt and pepper together in a small bowl until well blended. Spread 5 of the bread slices with half of the dill butter, then top the butter with a layer of cucumber slices¿it's fine if they overlap a little bit. Spread the remaining butter over the remaining bread and top the sandwiches. Cut each sandwich into 4 pieces.
GLAZED CUCUMBERS WITH DILL
Cucumbers with salty butter and dill make pretty sandwiches, but we like to cook them very gently for a warm, silky salad. Using garden cucumbers requires just a little prep: we remove the tough peel and scrape out the seeds, which can be watery. If you have some chopped parsley on hand, fold it in with the dill.

Steps:
- Quarter the cucumber pieces and place in a mixing bowl. Add the onions and season with salt. Mix to combine as you prepare the rest of the salad. This will start to draw out moisture, which will help thin out the dressing.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sour cream, vinegar, olive oil, hot sauce and garlic. Add the dill and season with salt and pepper. Pour over the cucumbers and onions and mix to combine. Let sit in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Serve!
CARROTS & CUCUMBERS WITH SWEET CHILI SAUCE
This is a lovely, refreshing salad that has a little "kick" to it! AND the contrast of colors between the carrots and cucumbers is really amazing. This salad comes from the Whole Foods Market website.

BAKED CUCUMBERS WITH CAULIFLOWER
This recipe was inspired by recipe#1722 by Traci & Jeff Poole1. Cucumbers make a lovely hot vegetable dish and maintain their crispness when baked. You may use them much like you would a Zucchini. In this recipe I used Cauliflower but other veggies would work equally well - Corn, Carrots & peas, just about anything. Try experimenting. This first time I didn't sprinkle with parmesan cheese but I will in the future. I hate wasting those lovely Cukes and this year they have gone crazy. This may be baked in your toaster oven.
