Expert Tips
- It's optional to peel the cucumber. I left the skin on mine (I usually do!) but you can peel if you prefer.
- If you wanted, you could also halve the cucumber and scoop out the inner watery seeds if you prefer.
- Serve this delicious low sodium cucumber sauce alongside low sodium grilled pork chops, low sodium chicken wings, and low sodium grilled chicken breasts.
