CUCUMBERS AND ONIONS (DIABETIC)



Cucumbers and Onions (Diabetic) image

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".
