Chopped cucumber, chopped beets, chopped avocado, with a splash of ACV, salt and pepper if desired… so good

You had me until the sweetener was added. I make an AMAZING salad with cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, artichoke hearts, garbanzo beans, a bit of red onion, 4 minced garlic cloves, the juice of a lemon, vinegar and fresh herbs... or use Italian herbs w/ sea salt & pepper! So yummy!

She has something to say AND she can sing and dance😉 Please make some videos that feature HER perspective!😊 Thanks!!

Cucumbers are delicious. I always make them in a bowl sliced with vinegar onion, and sometimes a little tomato diced in there with a little pepper salt very little and sometimes I put a little like maybe a teaspoon of Stevia in it the next day they are delicious.

To get rid of bitterness, My sister cuts off an end piece(like a disc) of a garden cucumber, then puts it back together and rubs it for awhile and it creates a white froth. Then you wash that off and do it again until it stops frothing, and it seems fine after that.

This is one of our family's favorite ways of eating cucumbers but we do equal amounts of water and sweetener...no water needed because the vinegar draws the water out of the cucumbers making more liquid. We also add 1-2 tablespoons of celery seeds. I have a bowl in the fridge now for dinner tomorrow!

@Dr.Livingood i love cucumbers and pickles I've veen a part of your team as far as the book and supplements and every video i can find even if i am late watching for the last month and i remember eating these as kids when my granfather and grndma used to make their own bread and butter and regular pickles and I've loved them since a kid even tho i was diagnosed with diabetes at 11 bc i was overweight and the doctors didn't test to see if u was type 2 or 1 so later i found out i was still producing insulin and i believe now i can come off the insulin all together bc i don't eat carbs except for organic foods and some organic fruit. Not much fruit at all and fewer organic bread like daddy dirty bread with rhe seeds you talked about in one video as being good for you. It even good btw. Lol. ❤❤❤ to you and Nurse Livingood and please pray for my 14 year old son who is suffering from fatty liver bc he chooses not to follow the diet i stsrted him on. Please. Thank you so much for all the videos you put out for us to be healthy.

The smaller the cuke the fewer and smaller seeds there are. Get cocktail ones if you have to buy. They set easy up grow though so grow your own and be sure you get clean fruit. They will grow in pots in a small space. They need lots of sun and water.
