I love "refrigerator pickles" (cucs with onions & vinegar & sweetener). I can't make em like grandpa used to (with a cup of sugar). . .but they are still SO GOOD with stevia.

Also, I make juice with cucs that is surprisingly refreshing & filling. I use my Vita-Mix, but am sure that they are soft enough for a regular blender to do the trick. Peeled cuc, ice, water, and herb or seasoning you like. Mix up & drink. Sometimes I add fruit & sweetener for a sweet drink. . .or dill or Italian seasoning for a more veggie taste, sometimes just salt & pepper. It's really nice in the summer when it's hot out.


Blessings,
