Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Cucumber
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Dried dill
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 15 pieces Pitted black olives (or green olives)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and dry the cucumber. Use a sharp knife or mandoline slicer to cut the cucumber into 15 evenly thick slices, approximately 1/3 inch each. Set the slices aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, garlic powder, dried dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
Transfer the herbed cheese mixture into a piping bag or a resealable bag with one corner snipped off for easy application.
Lay the cucumber slices flat on a serving platter. Pipe a dollop of the herbed cheese mixture onto each cucumber slice, about 1 to 2 teaspoons per slice.
Place one pitted black olive (or green olive) on top of the cheese mixture for each cucumber slice.
If desired, garnish each appetizer with a small sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley for added color and flavor.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.
