Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 English cucumber
- 1 cup hummus packaged or homemade
- 1/2 cup olive tapenade
- 1/2 cup sunflower or clover sprouts
Hummus
- 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1 tbsp cumin powder
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2-4 tbsp water
Olive tapenade
- 1 cup kalamata olives
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
Instructions
Hummus
- Combine ingredients in a food processor or blender and mix until smooth and creamy. Add more water to reach desired consistency.
Olive Tapenade
- Combine ingredients in a food processor and pulse on and off until you reach a finely chopped consistency. You want a little texture, not a paste.
To assemble
- Wash and cut the cucumber in 3/4-inch slices. Using a teaspoon, scoop out some of the seeds in each slice, forming a small area to hold the filling.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop the hummus onto each piece of cucumber.
- Top each hummus mound with a small amount of the olive tapenade and garnish with sprouts.
- Place onto a serving platter and treat your family and friends to this healthy treat.
