Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Lemon Cucumbers have found their way to me!

Aside from salads and sandwiches, what else can I make with them?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Tzatziki (sp?) is a delicious yogurt sauce/salad used in middle eastern meals. I use it alongside grilled fish or chicken. Line a wire strainer with cheesecloth- or paper towels pour plain yogurt in and allow to drain for a few hours (you should probably do this in the fridge- but i never do) When it is very thick add grated cucmber, lots of garlic and if desired chives and dill. It will need salt. Excellent alongside hummus and pita. I usually grill chicken with lemon and cumin to setrve with this.
Veggie "salsa"
dice up cucumbers, colored peppers, red onion, celery and tomaotes. Add minced garlic. Season with salt and some fresh chili's if so inclined.(or go in another direction and add basil and tiny cubes of fresh mozzarella) Allow to sit a while, until it gets juicy. Serve with chips or with any meat -or even rice and beans. I've also been known to toss the leftovers into jarred spaghetti sauce and they actually got eaten.
