It is a tradition to serve this at Kentucky Derby
Benedictine Spread
1 large cucumber
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 T. mayonnaise
2 T. grated onion
1/4 tsp. salt
Dash of green food coloring
Peel, grate and drain liquid from cucumber (a good way is to squeeze in cheese cloth). Blend all ingredients together with mixer or by hand. Serve as a sandwich or canape spread. Or thin with sour cream to make a dip for vegetables.
