Cucumber Tuna Bites

Yummy Cucumber Tuna Bites

I don’t usually post an appetizer recipe, or hors-d'oeuvre as someone fancier than I might say, BUT I couldn't help myself because these were just so fresh and tasty I had to share with you! These would be a perfect starter for any dinner party or bridal shower because what shower doesn't have cute little “sandwiches” of all kinds! 

I also love that you can eat 4 or 5 or even 8 of these and not feel bad because they have almost ALL healthy ingredients! Feel free to add more veggies or pickles, since that is common with tuna.

Start planning for your next gathering (or just something yummy for yourself like I did!)

Makes about 20 open-face cucumber sandwiches

INGREDIENTS:

• Peeled cucumber, sliced
• 2 cans of tuna, drained of all liquid
• 1/2 red pepper, chopped finely
• 1 carrot, chopped finely
• 1/4 onion, chopped finely
• 1 heaping spoonful of mayonnaise (***you have options: light mayo, cottage cheese, plain yogurt depending on what you like and how healthy you want it to be)
• Crumbled goat cheese (feta would also taste good!) - I didn’t measure but a couple tablespoons sounds about right, adds GREAT flavor!
• Salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place all chopped veggies and tuna in a medium bowl 
2. Add *mayo and goat cheese and stir until all ingredients are mixed together
3. Spread cucumber slices on a big plate and put a small spoonful of tuna mixture on top of each slice
4. Serve cold and enjoy!
