Ingredients
1 medium English cucumber
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tbsp Greek yogurt
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp lemon zest
4 oz thinly sliced deli turkey
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp chopped fresh dill or parsley
1 clove garlic (minced)
Instructions
Slice cucumber into 1/4-inch rounds and hollow out centers with a small cup or melon baller to create cups.
In a bowl, combine crumbled feta, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, and minced garlic. Mix until smooth.
Place a spoonful of whipped feta mixture at the bottom of each cucumber round.
Top each with a slice of deli turkey, then garnish with fresh herbs.
Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use a sharp knife for clean cucumber rounds.
For a meat-free option, substitute turkey with marinated tofu or roasted vegetables.
Store leftovers tightly wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours.
