Made this a couple of weeks ago for a family dinner and was very impressed. Easy to make, with a very distinct flavor; I particularly enjoyed the cilantro. Definetly a winner, I'm making it again for a dinner party tonight!

A big fan of cucumber salads, can't quite figure out how I missed this one until now. My version was made with Splenda for a 0-point (and Core) side to a Moroccan stew. The cool-spicy flavor of the salad was a perfect counterpoint to the fruity-savory blend in the stew. My only regret is I made a half batch (3 servings) and wish I made more as it will go quickly. No trouble, there are always more cukes to be had. Thanks Parsley. Made for *Potluck Tag*.
