What a wonderful blend of flavors! I was curious about the jalapeno and garlic mixed with such a mild vegetable like cucumbers, but it was just perfect. The cukes were cut a bit thick, so it helped them compete with everything else, I think. The lime juice topped it off nicely and gave it a fresh citrus kick. I cut this recipe in half and like Linorama, ate the whole thing myself! Thanks for the yummy lunch Miss Annie.
