I was looking for a salad recipe that my children would eat (gotta get those veggies in!), and decided to try this one. I was so sure they would love this one since they all love cucumbers. Well, the children wouldn't eat it, but I loved it! The cucumbers had a very nice flavor and the recipe was so easy to prepare. I'll keep looking for a recipe for the children and keep this one for special occasions.
