Marinated Cucumbers is a dish that is always great to serve as a snack and picnics. Because it is low in calories, you can offset some of the richer foods on the table by including it! Added too sandwiches, wraps and tortillas for a perfect addition.

I use this to spice up a turkey sandwich at Thanksgiving and Christmas. A couple of slices takes the sandwich to a new level without overpowering the turkey. Perfect and simple recipe for the holiday season.
