"My Hungarian Grandfather made this all the time with his homegrown cukes. I'm carrying on the tradition. This is a great summer very tasty treat by itself or as a sandwich."

This is a light refreshing salad for the summer. I even enjoyed it & I am not fond of cucumbers. I cut the recipe in half & it still made a lot. Made for Spring PAC 2009.
