I was planning to take this appetizer to a potluck with a mommy group that I’m part of, but it ended up getting canceled, so I made it for us at home. It was fine, but nothing special. It needs a little something else to be really special. I shouldn’t have bothered peeling the cucumber – I like the flavor of the peel. I think if this had a little more mixed into the cheese, it would have been better. It’s a great idea! I think also maybe a creamier cheese would hold up better – the crumbly feta tends to fall out easily.

Total time: 30 min
Prep time: 10 min
1 european cucumber (seedless, chilled peeled)
1/2 cup feta cheese (crumbled)
2 tbsps mayonnaise
8 drops worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp parsley (minced)
1. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise and with a teaspoon scrape out the centers containing the seeds.
2. In a small bowl, blend the feta, mayonnaise and Worcestershire sauce into a smooth mixture. Fill the centers of cucumbers with the cheese mixture. Sprinkle the cucumbers with parsley and chill them for at least 20 minutes. Before serving, slice the cucumbers crosswise into bite-sized pieces.

Try this trick which worked for me…cut the cuke into 1″ chunks, use a melon baller to scoop out the seed part but make sure there is a little bit left behind for the base. Fill with anything you want. My fave is a bit of Thai sweet red pepper sauce in the cuke cup, drop in a tiny boccocini, top with a Thai or regular basil leaf.

That sounds fabulous, Chris! I love that sauce…and any excuse to stuff cheese into something is usually a good thing 😉
