Chunky Buttermilk Cucumber Dressing

Directions

1. Buttermilk's flavour is similar to lowfat sour cream. Add in your favourite spices for salad dressing - or possibly fruit and honey for a refreshing drink.
2. 1. Peel cucumber. Cut in half lengthwise. Scrape out and throw away seeds.
3. Grate coarsely into small bowl. Stir in salt, sugar and vinegar. Let stand at least 10 min. Drain well. Throw away liquid. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine buttermilk, yogurt, lemon juice, dill, green onion, parsley, garlic, pepper and liquid removed cucumber. Shake well to combine. Chill. If refrigerated, this salad dressing will keep for 3 days.
