Very nice dip. I think it's more of a spread as written, but I didn't hear any complaints from anyone when I served it at a bbq yesterday. My friend loved it and asked me about the recipe, so I emailed it to her today. I added a bit of dill weed and used salt plus garlic powder (no garlic salt). Turned out well. Thanks for the recipe!

I brought this to our Derby party 2009 & got rave reviews! I drained the cucumbers and rinsed them. I also misread the directions & added a tbs of garlic salt instead of just a tsp. No one complained though. I also added some dill weed, celery salt, and a little sour cream. This recipe is easily altered to taste (various herbs & spices). I actually called it Benedictine since that's a traditional Derby dish. Its very similar. Loved it with veggies as well as with Lime Tostitos!

Very light and cool dip. I placed out many veggies and things to dip with and found that pretzels worked great with it.

I doubled the cucumber because I have so many in my garden, and loved this with wheat thins or in a wrap with ham and tomatoes.

First off, this recipe is delicious. I brought it to a cook out and everyone agreed how refreshing it is! I served it in a hollowed out bread bowl, cut the part of the bread i hollowed out into small squares and toasted them in the oven with virgin olive oil! Delicious!

This was really nice. I used only half an onion and seeded the cucumber before chopping. I also added about 2 tbsp. of hot sauce. I'm not sure I would've liked it with chips, but it would be great with a veggie platter or some nice crackers. I used this in an appetizer - baked and cooled wonton wrappers in muffin tins, spooned in a small amount of the dip and topped it with shredded garlic chicken.

This is a good recipe. I only had one block of cream cheese so I increased the mayo to 1 cup. Tasted great. Thanks!

Absolutely awesome dip! I added 1 T sour cream and 1/4 tsp dill weed for added flavor and omitted the garlic salt replacing it with 1/2 tsp each garlic powder and salt. Excellent recipe! Thanks for sharing.

I loved this recipe. I needed something to bring to a social gathering and it was gone after just a bit. I did omit the onion because I did not have any but added onion powder which worked nicely. I also added dill. Very Tasty. Also made it with low fat cream cheese and light mayo so it would be too bad for you. This is a keeper.

Really yummy; we served this in a hollowed out red cabbage with pita triangles, and some wedges from the red cabbage itself. Ours seemed to have a bit of an issue with blending properly, but still tasted great anyways.

We had so many cucumbers growing in the garden that we didn't know what to do with them. I made this dip with 8 oz. cream cheese, 2 TABL mayo, and 2 TABL sourcream. I used a large cuke and half an onion. It was the perfect solution.

This dip is *so* fresh and wonderful, the perfect complement to summer veggies or buttery crackers. I added some dill and celery salt but the grated cucumber is the real star of this show. [Don't forget to seed the cuke!] Even with light mayo and Neufchatel it was creamy and the consistency didn't suffer at all.

This is unbelievable!! It's so simple and so tasty. I served it with toastitos and triscuits. Make sure to let it sit as long as possible as it's better the longer it sits. Make it this night before just to make sure it has enough time in the fridge. Also, I periodically placed it back in the fridge from time to time just to keep it cold. Thanks so much for sharing. I'll be making this again and again and again!
