Cream Cheese Cucumbers
This is a recipe I came up with when I decided (at the last minute) that I needed something savoury to serve for some friends who were popping over for morning tea. I was so happy with the result - they look gorgeous, taste great and are a perfect, healthy little addition to the table.
Ingredients
1 cucumber (whichever variety you have in the fridge is fine!)
125g cream cheese
Squeeze of lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon paprika
fresh chives, to serve
Method
Combine cream cheese, lemon juice and paprika in a small bowl. Transfer to a piping bag with a large star tip.
Cut cucumber into thick rounds. Pipe a rosette of cream cheese mixture onto each piece of cucumber.
Top each with two pieces of chopped chives.
Looking forward to trying these out Vanessa! Have done cheesy vegemite scrolls and pasta cups - both with success :-) Thank you for the recipes! Emma xo
