Weight Watchers Vegetable And Cucumber Bites Recipe
This recipe is for healthy and tasty cucumber vegetable bites.
Ingredients
- 2-3 Cucumbers
- 8 oz Cream Cheese Softened
- 1 Red Pepper
- 1 Green Pepper
- 1 Yellow Pepper
- 1 Bag Matchstick Carrots
- 1-2 tablespoon Ranch Seasoning
- Vegetable Peeler or Mandolin
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese and ranch seasoning and mix well.
- Using a peeler or mandolin, cut long thin slices of the cucumbers. Once you’ve reached the seeds then stop and start with another cucumber.
- Spread a thin layer of cream cheese mixture on each cucumber slice.
- Cut the peppers into large matchstick size pieces. I made mine a little bigger than the carrot matchsticks.
- At the end of each cucumber slice, lay a few carrots, and one of each color pepper pieces.
- Start at the end with the veggies and roll up the cucumber slices. You can put a little extra ranch cream cheese at end of the cucumber slice to make sure the roll sticks when you stand them up.
- Serve right away or chill for a few hours first.
- Easy summer appetizer!
Notes
Use fresh, firm cucumbers like English cucumbers for the best texture and flavor.
For a flavorful filling, mix softened cream cheese with ranch seasoning, and consider adding finely chopped vegetables like red, green, and yellow peppers, along with matchstick carrots.
Slice the cucumbers lengthwise using a peeler or mandolin to create thin, uniform slices; this helps in rolling them neatly with the filling and vegetables.
