CREAMY CUCUMBERS OVERS MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. Peel and (thinly slice) each cucumber into a colander. And between each layer of cucumber, peeled and sliced, sprinkle with a bit of salt over each. (I normally set my colander inside a larger bowl, to allow the liquid from the cucumbers, to drain into the larger bowl.)
• 2. Let cucumbers sit in the colander for 1-3 hours. Then transfer the cucumbers into another bowl. (Discard the remaining liquid that has drained into the larger bowl.)
• 3. Now add the cream and vinegar to the cucumbers, and gently stir the cucumbers.
• 4. Add the salt and pepper, and once again, gently stir the cucumbers.
• 5. Cover the cucumbers, and place the bowl in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
• 6. Serve the creamy cucumbers over the 'hot' mashed potatoes. (For each serving: Just place desired amount of mashed potatoes onto your plate, and top with desired amount of the creamy cucumbers.)
• 7. Note: Before I top my potatoes with the cucumbers and cream, I first top my taters with a bit of butter, and let it melt into the potatoes just a bit. I just enjoy mine served this way!

The second time I made this salad, I added 4 tablespoons of finely chopped red onion, in place of the white and green onion, and that tasted great in the salad too! Also, when I added the sliced cucumbers, they were cucumbers I had in the refrigerator, which help the salad to stay cool.

CREAMY CUCUMBERS

Steps:

• Nothing is really measured, it depends on how much you want to make, for a family of four I start with 2 pretty good sized cucumbers. I peel and slice thin into a medium bowl.
• I than add 3 good scoops of mayonnaise with a tablespoon. Season with salt and pepper. Mix to coat the cucumbers well. I add a little more salt and pepper at this time. I like to see the pepper floating in the sauce when it's done.
• Cover and refrigerate several hours. Stir a couple of times while it's refrigerating. After several hours the mayonnaise will become creamy and the cucumbers are softer. Serve.
• You can use more cucumbers and mayonnaise for more people.
