Cucumber Dip for Vegetables
Makes about three cups
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Chilling time: one hour
This is a perfect accompaniment to a vegetable platter, much better than those metallic tasting dips that come with the pre-made platters. A little chopping and mixing and you have the makings of a party.

- 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise
- 1 large cucumber peeled, seeded and chopped
