5gNET CARBSCucumber Hummus Bites
Cool cucumber rounds topped with hummus, cherry tomato, feta and fresh dill.
Ingredients
Base
- 1 English cucumber
Toppings
- 1/2 cup hummus
- 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons crumbled feta
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
- Pinch of smoked paprika
Directions
- Slice the cucumber into 20 rounds about 1/2 inch thick. Trim off the ends first so the rounds sit flat.
- Lay the rounds on paper towels and pat the tops dry so the hummus stays put.
- Spoon the hummus into a zip-top bag, snip off a corner and pipe a small mound, about 1 1/4 teaspoons, onto each round. A small spoon works too.
- Press a cherry tomato half, cut side up, into each mound of hummus.
- Sprinkle with the feta, dill and a pinch of smoked paprika. Serve within 2 hours.
