This is a simple recipe to have as a refreshing side dish. It's especially good for picnics, bar-b-ques, potlucks and buffets. If you like your slices on the tart side cut back on the sugar a little bit. Please note it will need to be chilled at least 3 hours.

These really were surprisingly delicious for such a simple recipe. After making one batch, and tasting them, I made two more. Splenda worked out fabulously as a sugar replacement.

    I will never again be overwhelmed by a bumper crop of cucumbers! We opted to use chives instead of sliced onion and added a few cherry tomatoes to the mix. I am also partial to using rice wine vinegar for a bit more subtle tang. I don't know that I have ever been so pleased with the balance of sweetness and tanginess that your dish provides. With the perfect sweetness/tanginess combined with the dill and chives it was one of the best flavor explosions I have experienced! Thanks for this GREAT recipe!
