2 cucumbers
200g softened cream cheese
1 jar semi sun-dried tomatoes
Bunch of fresh thyme

Method:

• Wash hands.
• Wash the cucumbers. Chop off the ends of the cucumber and use a peeler to peel off most of the skin leaving thin strips for decoration.
• Cut the cucumbers into 2 cm thick disks.
• In a bowl, stir the cream cheese so that it becomes soft and smooth.  Place the cream cheese into a large decorating bag with a large star tip.
• Swirl the cream cheese onto the top of the cucumber disks.
• Cut the semi sun-dried tomatoes into strips and place one on each cucumber disk, folding it so that it sits neatly on the top.
• Garnish each cucumber with a few thyme leaves.
• Arrange the rounds on to a serving platter.  Serve as an entree or for a refreshing snack at parties.

SMARTY TIP: If you don’t have a decorating bag, use two teaspoons to put a dob of cream cheese on to each piece of cucumber.  It will look just as attractive.
