Cucumbers are a perfect side dish to me in the summer months. They are so cool, refreshing and always readily available. This side is so simple to make and we like the little kick the chili powder adds.
Bang Bang Cucumbers go perfectly with tuna salad for a light lunch or dinner also.
We make this as a side many nights instead of a salad. It’s one of our go to sides with grilled salmon. sometimes the simple dishes a the best ones!
Enjoy!
