THAI CUCUMBER SALAD
The vegetables in this crunchy, satisfying Thai Cucumber Salad can be tossed together with the tangy rice vinegar dressing a week in advance, leaving nothing more to do before serving than to scatter roasted peanuts and fresh herbs over the top.

LEMON CUCUMBER SALSA WITH FRESH MINT
Here in Oregon I can buy organic yet inexpensive lemon cucumbers from the Farmers' Market-alas, only in the summer! Sweeter and milder than standard cucumbers, this variety of cucumbers (L cucumis sativus) is light and refreshing! Be sure to choose ones that are firm, about the size of a lime, and have no large brown spots. From Home Grown Cooking.
