Cucumber Salads Bites are a decorative way to eat your salad, garnish a plate or serve as a healthy appetizer.
Serve Cucumber Salad Bites with your favorite dressing drizzling some on top or a side dish for dipping. I love them served with my Homemade Tzatziki Dip. Change things up by adding your favourite veggies.
Fresh, crisp ingredients rolled into a thin cucumber slice. Cut the cucumber slice as thin as you can so it rolls easy, but thick enough to hold everything inside.
Cucumber Salad Bites are best serve immediately after making so the fresh veggies don’t wilt and avocado doesn’t turn brown.

April 27, 2012 at 12:29 pmHi Laureen,
I came here through KitchenArtistry. Such a lovely presentation. I never say no to Salads. But this one makes me say ‘I want that’ :-). As the name of your blog says i will look forward for more of your art in the kitchen :-). Happy to follow you. and the Photo looks fantastic.
I have one question: how do you slice the cucumber such thin. did you use any tool or if not can you please give some tips for that.

Yum! Yum! Yum!

April 27, 2012 at 1:02 pmThank you Mythreyi for the lovely comment. I used a very sharp chef’s knife. Cut one side flat first, then slice with cucumber secure on cutting board.
Check back soon I will be posted a wonderful avocado citrus salad.

February 12, 2016 at 10:37 pmVery pretty! If you microwave the green onons for 20 seconds, they will be soft enough to actually tie them around the cucumber without breaking and eliminate the toothpick.

February 12, 2016 at 11:22 pmthanks for that tip, I will do that next time I make them.
