Method:

1. Using a food processor with the S blade in place, put the onion and jalapeno in the food processor, and pulse until they are both finely chopped.

2. Remove the S blade and put on the slicing disk. Quarter the cucumbers lengthwise, then run them through processor. If you're not using a food processor, you'll want to dice the onion and mince the jalapeno, then slice the cucumber as thin as you can.

3. Put the onion, jalapeno, and cucumbers in a big bowl. In a separate bowl, thoroughly combine the garlic, ginger, vinegar, salt, pepper, and Splenda. Pour over the vegetables, and mix well.

4. Chill for a few hours before serving, for the best flavor.
