In the spirit of summer, we bring to you a refreshing cucumber snack, unlike any other! Cucumbers are not only a cool antidote to the heat, but they are also rich in nutrients, including vitamin K, hydration, and dietary fiber. This dish, while a bit unexpected, is a delightful spin-off of classic American bruschetta, proving that cucumbers can be more than just salad material.

Ingredients (for 4)

Preparation

  1. Step 1 - πŸ”₯πŸžπŸ«’
    Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (180Β°C). Take your thinly sliced sourdough bread and arrange them on a baking sheet. Brush one side of each slice with olive oil.
  2. Step 2 - β²οΈπŸžπŸ˜‹
    Put the baking sheet in the pre-heated oven and bake the bread slices for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. After baking, remove the bread slices from the oven and let them cool.
  3. Step 3 - πŸ₯’πŸ…πŸŒΏπŸ§€
    While the bread slices are baking, you can prepare the cucumber topping. In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced cucumbers, halved cherry tomatoes, freshly chopped dill and crumbled feta cheese. Stir them together to mix.
  4. Step 4 - πŸ§‚πŸ―πŸ₯’πŸ₯£
    Season the cucumber topping with salt, black pepper, and a drizzle of honey, then stir gently. Make sure not to break the cucumber slices.
  5. Step 5 - 🍞πŸ₯’πŸ½οΈ
    Once the bruschetta bread has cooled, set a tablespoon of the cucumber topping on each slice. Arrange your finished bruschetta on a serving plate and they're ready to serve immediately.
