Cucumber Bites Recipe

Cucumbers are a great vegetable to snack on and they come with lots of healthy benefits. Cucumbers have high water content and are rich in multivitamins and fiber.

Cucumber bites are cucumbers cut into bite size pieces and eaten as is or with a dip. It’s just a fancy name for cut up cucumbers.

If you love cucumbers like I do, these easy cucumber bites would be a great addition to your healthy appetizer collection. If you are looking to use homemade peanut butter, you can learn how to make peanut butter too.

How to make Cucumber bites two ways

• Cucumbers bites are one of the easiest appetizers to make. First you have to decide what filling or topping you would want for the cucumber bites and prepare it.
• Next you to wash the cucumbers clean, cut them up. Then you top with the filling of choice. In this recipe I used peanut butter. If haven’t tried peanut butter and cucumbers then you are in for a very pleasant tantalizing surprise.
• The first way to make cucumber bites is to make them into sandwiches. Cut the cucumbers into 1/2 inch circles, place a circle at the bottom then fill with desired filling then too off with another slice of cucumber.
• For the second method, cut the cucumber into 1 to 1 1/2 inch circles, with a melon baller, scoop out some of the middle (see picture 2 in collage below for illustration)
• then pipe in filling of choice.

What type of cucumbers can I use

You can use any type of cucumber accessible to you to make these cucumber appetizers.

I like to use English cucumbers or Persian cucumbers because the skin is softer and the seeds are very tender. Regular cucumbers, Chinese cucumbers or mini cucumbers will work.

If you can’t find Persian cucumbers in your area, English cucumbers work perfectly.

What is the difference between Persian cucumbers and English cucumbers

English Cucumbers have a thin skin with very tender small seeds and are usually crunchy and slightly watery. They are the long slender cucumbers you usually see in the grocery store wrapped in tight plastic.

Persian Cucumbers are very similar to English cucumbers but are usually smaller. They tend to be just about 5 to 6 inches long and are more crunchy and less watery than the English cucumbers

Cucumbers are a nice vegetable to incorporate into to your diet because it has some great health benefits.

Benefits of Cucumbers

Quick recipe notes and tips

• You can use a crinkle knife/ cutter to slice the cucumbers. This gives the cucumber bites pretty wavy patterns. See it in action in the image captioned cucumber sandwich bites.
• It’s best to use less watery cucumbers for this recipe.
