Ingredients
- 2 pieces English cucumber
- 200 grams Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (plain)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 10 pieces Cherry tomatoes
Directions
Step 1
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and pat them dry with a towel. Using a vegetable peeler or knife, partially peel alternating strips of skin to create a striped pattern.
Step 2
Slice the cucumbers into 1-inch thick rounds. Use a melon baller or small spoon to scoop out a portion of the center from each round, creating a small cup. Be sure not to scoop all the way through to the bottom.
Step 3
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, chopped fresh dill, lemon zest, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Transfer the cream cheese mixture into a piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with one corner snipped off. Pipe the filling into the cucumber cups, filling them generously.
Step 5
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half. Top each cucumber cup with half a cherry tomato as a garnish.
Step 6
Arrange the cucumber delights on a serving platter and chill in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes before serving.
