Ingredients:
4 ounces (1 Brick) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1/4 cup ranch dressing
2 tablespoons fresh dill or thyme
3 to 4 long cucumbers, skinned and sliced into 1 inch slices
15 cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
Salt, to taste
Paprika or cajun spice mix, for garnish
How To Make Cucumber Bites with Herb Cream Cheese and Cherry Tomatoes:
First, Make the herbed cream cheese: in a stand mixer, mix the
softened cream cheese with the ranch dressing and herbs. Mix
until well combined. Spoon into a piping bag with a star tip.
Prepare the cucumber, remove peel, and using a fork, score the
sides. Slice into 1 inch pieces. Using a melon baller, remove a
portion of the center of one side of the piece of cucumber,
leaving a half moon crater.
Pipe the Herb Cream Cheese into the crater. Enough to stick
out of the top about 1/2 inch.
Add a half Cherry Tomato partially buried into the Herb Cream
Cheese
Sprinkle additional salt, herbs and spice mix for additional
color. Chill in the fridge until ready to serve.
