'ONE OF the staples of Ukrainian cooking is sour cream. This combination of sour cream and cucumbers makes a very tasty salad. During the summer we use cucumbers from our garden for that wonderfully fresh, crunchy taste. But store-bought cucumbers work almost as well, so we enjoy this dish year-around--it goes especially well with meat dishes.'

'Someone shared this zucchini recipe with me years ago. Light and refreshing, it complements any meat you serve it with,' pens Sandi Laskowski of Rapid City, South Dakota. Reduced-fat sour cream helps keep the calorie count down, while dill boosts the flavor. Try Sandi's sauce over chicken or grilled fish.

Lemon is the perfect food and in this chopped and marinated cucumber dish, it adds just the right touch. After everything is measured and stirred, the cucumbers are chilled, and four hours later, spooned onto waiting plates.

Thin, thin cucumbers are doused with sugar, water, vinegar, celery seed and onion, and chilled for an hour or so. Great as a salad or as open face sandwiches on pumpernickel bread.
