Herbed Cucumber Bites

Something done with cucumbers is a classic for any tea party. These herbed cucumber bites are like cucumber sandwiches minus the bread.

Cucumber slices get topped with a flavorful herbed cream cheese mixture. It’s the perfect little bite. Now I peeled half of the cucumber to give it s striped affect but you can peel it all the way or not peel it at all! It’s whatever you like! No matter what you choose to do, it will still taste fantastic.

The cheese mixture is made by combining softened light cream cheese, green onion, dried dill, dill pickle juice (just from a jar of dill pickles), onion powder, garlic powder, season salt, and pepper. You want to mix it all together with a hand mixer to get it light and fluffy. The you want to keep this mixture in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before you use it.

When ready to serve, just pipe the cream cheese mixture onto the slices of cucumber. I like to use a cake decorating tip to make these herbed cucumber bites look fancy!
