Italian Style Cucumber Salad image

I invented this recipe when my first cucumbers ripened in my garden. It was designed around using homegrown, organic produce. As a starting point, I checked this site for cucumber salad recipes. Nearly all of them used both sour cream and dill weed. I didn't have any sour cream or dill weed on hand, so I improvised with what I did have on hand, and it turned out great! It's also probably healthier because of the lack of sour cream
