It hasn’t gone unnoticed that prices in Egypt have recently inflated. Because this is a food blog, I’m going to limit my general rant to how groceries have doubled and even tripped in price, because i can, somehow, still work my way around food and think of economic solutions — all i can do regarding the price of airline tickets, petrol, utility bills, appliances and transportation around Cairo is basically freak out and weep :). Given the threads and conversations I’ve also witnessed recently,
“Natural food” is a label that’s been increasingly making its rounds in supermarkets since the 1990s. But will natural foods make me healthier? Or just hype?

Cucumber salad is usually one of my favorite go-to salads. It's easy to make, and can be prepared quickly for those last minute dinner invites. You know the ones I'm talking about..... What makes this cucumber salad special is, it's a Weight Watchers salad. Yup, 0 WW points. You can eat 12-14 cucumber slices per serving. When I peel my cucumbers I like to leave a little of the skin on. I cut off the ends and peel the cucumber so it looks like it has stripes. The dark green color give the cucumber salad a much more pretty presentation. More inviting to eat. I found this recipe at Nana's Recipe Box, through Pinterest, of course. I made a couple changes, but nothing drastic. Weight Watchers Cucumber Salad (0 WW points, 12-14 slices per serving) In a large measuring cup mix: 1/4 c. white vinegar 1 TBS lemon juice 2 tsp. liquid sweetener (Agave In The Raw) 1 tsp. salt 1/8 tsp. pepper 1/2 tsp. celery seed Stir together and pour over sliced cucumber and onion. In a med/large mixing bowl slice cucumber and onion: 1/2 of a medium sweet onion, sliced (I cut the slices in half and separated the rings) 3-4 medium cucumbers sliced (I used organic).
Small tweaks make a big difference.
