RE: Recipes Using Cucumbers and Onions
This is a Salad. The way I love them is to slice the Cucumbers and Onions I like them in thin slices or to ones liking and Sprinkle salt on them then pour buttermilk on them. I let it set awhile till they are cold in the fridge.

P.S. If you don't like buttermilk you can use a ranch dressing that is mild. ... View related article.
