    Ethnic - Thai Cucumber Salad

    Salad:
    2 medium cucumbers, peeled
    1 medium tomato, cut into 8 wedges
    2 green onions, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
    2-4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

    Dressing:
    2 teaspoons fructose
    2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
    2 teaspoons low-salt soy sauce
    Dash of cayenne, optional

    Cut each cucumber lengthwise into 8 spears. Cut each spear
    crosswise into 1/2-inch slices. Cut tomato wedges in half
    crosswise. In a large bowl, combine fructose, lime juice,
    soy sauce, and cayenne (if desired), and blend well.

    Add cucumbers, tomato pieces, green onions, and
    cilantro, and toss lightly to coat. Cover and
    refrigerate about 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
