Baked Cucumbers

By
Real Estate Agent 0488515

Baked cucumbers are a great unexpected treat.

4 cucumbers, peeled, halved lengthwise, seeded and cut into about 2" pieces

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

1 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons sugar

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 cup either fresh mint, basil or cilantro

3 tablespoons black pepper

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

Combine cucumbers, vinegar, salt and sugar in a bowl, toss and marinate for about 30 minutes.

Heat oven to 375.  Drain the cucumbers, place in baking dish, add the oil, herb, scallions and black pepper.  Bake for 30 minutes stirring every 10 minutes.  Stir in the cheese and bake an additional 10 minutes.

Hi Richard... this one has me intriqued.  I am not a huge cucumber fan, but I have never had them baked.  I might have to try this!

I enjoy cucumbers but never considered baking them.  I think I'll try it.

I have to tell you, the idea of a hot baked cucumber just doesn't do it for me.  Maybe they are delicious, but I think I'll stick to the cool and crunchy ones!
