Armenian Cucumbers and Homemade Hummus


                The Perfect Snack
 
 
After eating things that were bad for me on Friday and Saturday, I decided enough was enough.  We had an Armenian cucumber left over from the Farmers Market so I decided to fix some homemade hummus to go along with the cucumber slices.  Yum. . .  no more guilt for now.  

Armenian cucumbers are my favorite cucumbers.  They are not bitter, even with the skin on and seeds.  So nice to not have to peel them - skin is not tough.  
 
These would make great juicers, put in water for flavoring, in salads, etc.  Our friend gifted us with some that were pickled.  Going to dive into those this week.
