Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / March 2004tasty snack
Part of lunch today: sliced cucumber, with some garlic-and-herb-flavored cream cheese spread, topped with a few bits of diced red bell pepper. On a couple of them, added a drop or two of some Vermont Pepperworks habanero hot sauce. Crunchy, colorful, and tasty. I'm going to have to remember to put these out as appetizers at Christmas (minus the habanero sauce, probably); they were very festive looking. Em You mean you just spread the cream cheese on the sliced cucumber? or did you dip the cucumber in the cheese? That's a combo I haven't tried yet...

I spread it on. (I blotted the cuke slices with a paper towel first so the cream cheese wouldn't slide off.)

It helps if you blot the slices on a paper towel before you put them out, because they tend to be moist and if they are the cream cheese doesn't stay very well. We like ours with a little bit of smoked salmon and some finely chopped onion. You can also mix cream cheese, sour cream, and chopped salmon for a tasty veggie dip. There are many recipe variations online. Dawn Slices of cucumber with Armenian string cheese w/ caraway seeds. Pull the strings, don't cut across the grain of the cheese, and pile onto the cucumber. jo > Part of lunch today: sliced cucumber, with some garlic-and-herb-flavored > cream cheese spread, topped with a few bits of diced red bell pepper.
