DIABETIC DILL SWEET CUCUMBER SALAD



Diabetic Dill Sweet Cucumber Salad image

It is a variation on a cucumber salad my grandmother always makes in the late spring and summer. Of course, she uses real dill out of her garden. In any case, my dad is now diabetic and so we made some substitutions. It is a refreshing addition to any meal.
