Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2-3 Persian Cucumbers
  • 1 to 1½ Tablespoons Ranch Seasoning
  • ½ Lemon (juiced)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cucumbers: Wash the Persian cucumbers thoroughly, then slice them into rounds or half-moons, depending on your preference. Place the sliced cucumbers into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Add Seasoning: Sprinkle 1 to 1½ tablespoons of ranch seasoning evenly over the cucumber slices. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the cucumbers and seasoning.
  3. Toss to Combine: Toss everything together thoroughly until all cucumber pieces are fully coated with the ranch seasoning and lemon juice, ensuring an even flavor distribution.
  4. Chill Before Serving: Refrigerate the seasoned cucumbers for at least 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the snack to chill. Serve cold for best taste and refreshment.

Notes

  • Use Persian cucumbers for their tender skin and crisp texture.
  • Adjust ranch seasoning quantity to taste depending on desired flavor intensity.
  • Chilling the cucumbers enhances the flavor melding but you can eat immediately if short on time.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days.
  • This snack is low in calories and makes a great healthy side or light appetizer.
