CUCUMBERS AND ONIONS (DIABETIC)
The other recipes I've seen have sugar and some have sour cream. This one is diabetic friendly and has neither. It's from Cottage Living Magazine, 8/2007. The magazine says "This is a simple and essential summer recipe, good with everything and a great addition to cold salad platters. Be sure to taste a slice of each cucumber-a bitter one can ruin the whole salad".
