    Incredible!
    What a bright, fresh salad. This was quite good, nice and crunchy and very low calorie. Loved it! - 10/17/11

    Very Good
    This is a nice summer salad! I added cooked (but still crunchy) lentils - thereby making this a great main dish. I didn't have any wine, veg. broth, or "english" cucumbers, so I substituted cider vinegar, low-salt chicken broth (no longer vegetarian, sorry!), and regular cukes - recipe still works! - 5/28/10
