There is no actual recipe here, only an idea for an easy and elegant way to whip up a healthy bite-size appetizer without a lot of fuss.

A friend of mine called and asked me if I could give her an idea for a friend’s pot-luck St. Patrick’s dinner she was attending.  

How about bringing a green-colored appetizer to the event? 

She thought it was a great idea!

How to make Healthy Cucumber Appetizer Bites?

For this idea, I mentioned she needed to get to the store and pick up a few things.  

INGREDIENTS to pick up…

  • one English cucumber
  • some dill (dried or fresh)
  • a container of already-made cucumber hummus
  • and a small jar of capers

Directions to make cucumber appetizer bites…

1. First, slice the cucumber into 1/4-inch thick slices.

2. Add a small dollop of cucumber hummus on top.

3. Garnish with a sprinkle of dill and top with one caper.

Here’s a Tip: Local grocery stores sell different flavored hummus’ making it very convenient. The creamy texture of the hummus makes an excellent flavor as the spread on the cucumber.  

You might be tempted to choose other flavored hummus for this appetizer.
