To make the cucumber roll-ups you need 1-2 pieces of thinly peeled cucumber per person.
To cut the cucumber really thin use a sharp veggie peeler and run it along the full length  of the cucumber until you have good 1 to 1 ½ inch slices – put these aside.

  The Pea/Mint Pate Stuffing: makes 2 cups

  Put the following in your food processor and process until chunky:
       • the cucumber pieces that were left over (about ½ cup)
       • ½ cup pecans (soaked for ½ hour then drained)
       • 5-10 large mint leaves (the more if you love mint)
       • ¼ cup of each chopped: celery & onion
       • 1 clove garlic
       • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar

  Put this into a bowl then fold in ¼ cup fresh peas.

  Lay out the cucumber slices and cut into 3-5 inch lengths.
  Put a spoonful of stuffing on each piece and roll up tightly –
  then put them in a container or on a plate and add more
  stuffing until they look like the picture above.

  Keep cool until ready to serve – they keep well overnight.
