Introduction

I love this stuff. It's a great snack to give to yourself or your kids. It's just cut up cucumber put in a cup and add Chile Powder with a bit of salt and some Lemon squeezed over it about a tablespoon full. I like to use this stuff from the Mexican Store and forget the name of it but it comes with lemon powder, chili powder and salt already mixed up in a little bitty can that's a bright green in color or a bright red in color and it's sold in the candy isle because the Hispanic kids just love it. My daughter knows the name of it and when I get it I'll add it here but in the meantime just use the above ingredients and mix it all together and it's great chilled. It's great on a hot summer day as a snack. I love this stuff. It's a great snack to give to yourself or your kids.
