Cucumber Salad Surprise Recipe #251647
It looks like ordinary cucumbers and onions. But there's a zesty surprise hiding behind that creamy coolness -- a little zing of minced jalapeno. Not really hot (though you could use a milder Anaheim pepper if you're sensitive), just a little zip. A little celery adds unexpected crunch.
