5 from 1 reviews

Fresh Cucumber Dill Bites are the perfect easy, no cook, bite size appetizer for your next party or potluck. Cucumber slices are topped with fresh dill cream cheese. A great, healthier, alternative to your typical party snack.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces plain block cream cheese (softened at room temperature)
  • 2 large cucumbers
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh dill (plus additional for topping)
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Into the softened cream cheese, mix in the dill, spices, and lemon juice. You can do this by hand, but I prefer to use a mixer on medium-high to get the mixture smooth.
  2. Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag with your preferred tip, or a zip top bag. Place in the refrigerator while you slice the cucumber.
  3. Slice the cucumber into 1/4 inch rounds. You can leave the cucumber unpeeled or you can peel strips to form a striped look. Pipe the cream cheese onto the rounds and top with dill if desired.
  4. Serve immediately.

Notes

The leftover cream cheese can be store in the refrigerator, sealed, for up to 5 days.
