Cucumbers are great for snacks during the day (or during the long work hours when you'd normally be munching on vending machine snacks) or as salad all on their own! Cut them up, add your favourite light dressing and you have a simple, filling and tasty salad!

I love Kirby Cucumbers.

Cucumbers can be a very filling snack, addition to many salads, or even as an added crunch to sandwiches. They are very low in calories so you can eat a whole cucumber and not feel guilty. :)

really good, especially if you toss them with some vinegar, evoo, salt, and pepper.

Probably my all-time favorite food. Good with anything, and especially on their one. Just the smell of cucumbers gets me hungry...honestly. I can say nothing bad about a fine cucumber, especially kirbys, which are like the snack version of a cucumber! I LOVE THESE THINGS DAMMIT.

I also heard that cucumbers, either eaten or placed on the face, is great to firm skin.
Cucumbers have a chemical that reduces water retention which can explain why it's good for puffiness around the eyes.

Try raita. Mix cucumbers (finely sliced, shredded or chopped) with non-fat yogurt and you have a version of a wonderfully refreshing salad from India called raita. Add herbs or spices like cilantro, cumin or cayenne pepper.

When I crave the salty crunch of potatoe chips I go for lightly salted cucumber slices. The fresh taste picks you up!
