Cucumbers With a Kick

cuteandbublee's Note:

as a kid i was introduced to cucmbers in vinegar but the vinegar taste is far too bitter and unpleasant to me and by tweaking the recipe i have found myself to eat 1-3 whole cucumbers at a time.

Good side dish. I halved the lemon, quartered the chili powder and used just an 1/8 teaspoon of the salt. I think you could probably get away with a quarter of the lemon too.

I wasn't thrilled with this, but it tasted alright. If I make it again, I think I'll cut back on the lemon juice and salt a little.

Like Lays Potato Chips, you can't eat just one. These are heavenly!! Nobody else in my family has had a chance to try them, because I can't leave them alone!
