| Two sliced cucumbers and your favorite dip! That’s all for this recipe! |
Ok. They’re not really potato chips. They’re sliced cucumbers. Once you dip them in this sauce though, the chip won’t matter!
I went to a friend’s house for a dinner party a couple days ago and decided to take a tray of sliced cucumber and some Sweet Pickle Ranch sauce to dip them in. It was my low-carb chips and dip contribution to a carb-heavy spread of delicious party food.
In truth, I was worried that none of it would get eaten, but the tray went over well and there were just a hand full of cucumber chips left by the end of the night. The best reviews came mostly from the female population at the party, who seemed to like having a healthier option for after-meal grazing as part of the spread. The tray disappeared primarily from people grabbing a slice of cucumber and dredging it in the sauce as they passed by the snack table.
The chips and dip, along with a tray of ham pickle roll-ups (like these) that I made seemed to generate lots of good food conversation throughout the night. I couldn’t be happier with how the health-concious snack approach was received.
I’m really starting to enjoy the unique challenge of healthier food in the quest for delicious bites!
Eat well, cook often …
