attack of the cucumbers.
We leave for the holiday weekend and come back to this:
Apparently our two cucumber plants decided it was high-time that they started producing. Expect a lot cucumber recipes this week. If you are eating seasonally, you could probably use some, too. As great as cucumbers are, they are almost impossible to preserve (other than pickling). So you gotta get your cucumber on while the gettin’ is good.
And the gettin’ is certainly good right now.
Psssst….while you are waiting for my cucumber-y return, go check out my Ten Minute Tzatziki. It was the very first recipe on BTHR!
What’s your favorite way to eat a cucumber?

bring on the recipes! I have 2 pounds of these green friends in my crisper right now…overwhelmed with what to do with them.
Oh, don’t you worry! I have some fun ones on the way.
Use to like cucumbers as a kid, now not so much. I think it’s actually one of the few vegetables I don’t LOVE…Maybe you can change that!
What don’t you like about cucumbers? Babyface always said he didn’t like them, but then I peeled them for him and it was like a WHOLE NEW CUCUMBER WORLD. He loved the taste, just not the texture of the peel.
