Cucumber-Guacamole Appetizers


Cucumber-Guacamole Appetizers

1. Slice a thin skinned French (hot house) cucumber into rounds. This is your base. Place these on your serving tray.

2. Dollop Guacamole (use your favorite recipe or see mine at the bottom) on each cucumber round.

3. Place a cilantro leaf on top of guacamole.

4. Place ½ of a grape tomato (sliced widthwise)

5. Sprinkle with Herbamare or sea salt.

My easy Guacamole: I usually juice 1/2 lemon into a bowl. I then sprinkle in dried minced garlic and dried minced onion. While that re-hydrates in the lemon juice, I cut the avocado and scoop it into the bowl on top of the lemon juice. I sprinkle with herbamare or sea salt and sometimes a sprinkle of cayenne.
