We really liked this! I marinated the cucumbers in the dressing all day instead of throwing them in at the last minute because I didn't want a crunchy, crunchy texture. I didn't have peanuts and used almonds instead. Next time I'll be sure to have peanuts on hand and I imagine it will be even better.
