Creamy Cucumbers & Onions

The weather has been unseasonably warm for March.....and we are loving it! (So are the baby calves!)

Last night I grilled burgers and made a whole bowl of Creamy Cucumbers & Onions. This recipe is one of our favorites in the summer. I make it to take to the roping arena, to golf league on my night to cook, and several times just as a side dish at home.
This is The Pampered Chef Spiral & Slice.
It makes perfect spirals out of vegetables
with very little effort. It's so easy and is safe for
kids to use. It is one of my favorite kitchen gadgets!
