Cucumber Subs

I am always experimenting with new low carb recipes.  Please "like" Make the best of everything on Facebook for new low carb updates!!

Here is another installment in my " eating lighter" campaign.  And I should just state that I am NOT anti bread!  I LOVE bread!  I am just trying to be pro vegetable!

Do you peel your cucumbers?  I sometimes do.  If the skin tastes bitter I will defiantly peel it.  If the cucumber is organic, I will always leave it on.  There is so much nutrients in the skin, that I like to keep the skin on if possible.

And I must say, that after a hard morning workout during this hot summer season, this was an extremely refreshing lunch.  I have always loved cucumbers.  They are so crisp and refreshing.  Have you ever had a cucumber slice on a Triscut cracker?  Now THATS something!

These are the ingredients I chose to use in my cucumber subs.  These are the items I prefer on a sandwich.  Guess what? you don't have to follow my recipe.  Make something you will enjoy!  I happen to be a HUGE fan of both dijon mustard and laughing cow cheese.

Cut your cucumber to make it appropriate for a sub sandwich and scoop out the seeds.  The sandwich fillings will go there!

This was a great lunch.  However, I am not sure I will make them exactly like this next time.  I will either cut the sandwich into smaller pieces before eating it, or I will make this open faced.
