LIGHT AND TASTY CUCUMBER SLICES



Light and Tasty Cucumber Slices image

This is another attempt at me trying to find low fat and low calories 'treats' that also pack a bit of flavor. I am a pickles freak so I would pretty much be happy with any cucumber and vinegar combo but I especially like these when I want a more delicate flavor. They are good as a side with dishes like salmon or I even sometimes just put a few on a sandwich when I want some zest without any fat. I make this with Splenda because I really don't want the sugar as I am counting fat and calories.

Time 10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

13 ounces cucumbers
2 garlic cloves, crushed and chopped
3/4 cup white vinegar
1 1/2 cups Splenda granular
1/4 teaspoon dried dill

Steps:

  • Slice the cucumber into really thin slices. I use my food processor to do this and it just takes a few seconds.
  • In a bowl combine the white vinegar, Splenda, garlic and dill and just stir until the Splenda is dissolved.
  • Pour wet mixture over the cucumber slices and stir so that the mixture has coated all of the slices.
  • You can eat right away but they are much better if you put them in an air tight container and chill them in the fridge for a few hours (I do them overnight).

JUST CUCUMBER SLICES

This is a simple recipe to have as a refreshing side dish. It's especially good for picnics, bar-b-ques, potlucks and buffets. If you like your slices on the tart side cut back on the sugar a little bit. Please note it will need to be chilled at least 3 hours.
