[recipe] Marinated Cucumbers

[Guest guest]

Here is a recipe I found in a Taste of Home

magazine. I adjusted some of the seasonings

to our liking and it is very nice to take to

potlucks and picnics. It is great to mix up

early in the week and just pick at with lunch

or as a snack. I love to put these cucumbers

on veggie burgers or in sandwich wraps.

Enjoy.

 

Marinated Cucumbers

 

6 medium cucumbers, thinly sliced [no need to peel]

1 medium red onion, sliced into rings

1/3 cup raw sugar [ aka turbinado]

1/4 cup olive oil

1 tsp. sea salt

1 tsp. dried oregano

1 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. marjoram

1 tsp. lemon-pepper seasoning

1/2 tsp. ground mustard

 

In a bowl, combine the cucumbers and onion.

In a jar with a lid, combine the dressing ingredients

and shake well. Pour the dressing over the veggies

and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at

least 4 hours; you can stir this every so often if you

think to do it, but if not no worries, it comes out good

anyway. Serve with a slotted spoon.

Yield: 12 servings
