So, my farmer's market has these wonderful yellow cucumbers, I can't remember if they're called lemon cucumbers or if the description just mentioned lemon, but they are absolutely delicious. Way better than your average cucumber and smaller, about half the length. I made this salad with them (nothing too original, but tasty):
Herbed Tomato and Cucumber Salad
1 yellow cucumber, halved lengthwise and sliced thin
1 tomato, cored and chopped
1 tbsp minced fresh basil
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
juice from 1/2 a lime
1 tsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Toss all ingredients together and let sit, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes before serving. (single serving in my book)
