Cucumber Salad

A vegetable garden of some sort is a Pecar family staple. Cucumbers will soon "becoming out our ears" as they say. So I am posting a recipe for Grandma's Cucumber Salad. I hope you enjoy!

Cucumber Salad
Wash and pare the cucumbers and into slices an inch or an inch and a half thick. Place on lettuce remove the centers, slice crosswise leaving slices in place and filling the cups thus made with a mixture of celery, green peppers, and a little onion. Serve with French dressing.

I had to read this a couple times to get a picture of what it would look like. Keep in mind that I cipy her recipes exactly as written in her handwriting on the card. (So, after cutting the cucumbers into 1" or 1 1/2" slices, slice them long-wise and core them. Then place them on the lettuce leaves and fill them with the mixture.)

I'll bet this is pretty on the plate!
