Cucumbers with Lime-Chile Dressing

Ingredients

• 1 lb kirby cucumber (cut into 1/4)
• 2 green onions, thinly sliced (including tops, about 1/4 cup)
• 2 tablespoons tomato sauce (or bottled chili sauce)
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 teaspoon lime juice
• 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon ginger, ground
• 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

Directions

1. 1

   Small Kirby cucumbers, normally used for pickling, are called for here because they are crunchier and less watery.

2. 2

   You can use other cucumbers and peel them if desired.

3. 3

   In a medium size bowl, combine the cucumbers and green onions.

4. 4

   In a small bowl, whisk together the chili sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, sugar, ginger and hot pepper sauce. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and toss to coat.
