Cucumber, the fruit of wonder, full of water and fibre, it will help you stay hydrated during hot summer days, flush out toxins from your body and nourish you with vitamins. What’s not to love about them!
We are still drowning in cucumbers. We jarred over 50 pots of different flavoured cucumber pickles but we think we may have reached our limit… now it’s time to look for some different inspiration on how to incorporate them into our diet in different ways.
I hope that this recipe round-up will give you some new ideas for different cucumber uses.
Cucumber and Mint Flavoured Water
Cucumber Basil & Avocado Gazpacho
