Just inherited a bunch of cucumbers from a friend's garden. I love them just on their own with some salt, and have made many a salad using them. I'm curious what kinds of fun things you all may use them for. Even if you feel like it's basic please share as I will be eating cucumbers for the next several days straight lol. Thanks for any and all suggestions!

Salade nicoise : cold rice, tomatoes, cucumbers, olivs (green or black, but black ones give a weird color to the salad), mayonnaise. You can also add thuna, cubes of hard cheese..

Tabbouleh : bulgur, tomatoes, cucumber, oignon, mint, lemon juice, olive oil. You can also add chicken breast, chick peas, raisin, parsley, watermelon..

For these salades, there are tons of recipes. In my opinion, the most important is to have more vegetables than anything else.
