Today’s Healthy Snack Recipe: Cucumber Avocado Boats

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share with you my new creation, perfect for warm summer days or as a light snack any time of the year. These Cucumber Avocado Boats are not only healthy and refreshing but also incredibly easy to make.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cucumber (medium-sized)
  • 1 avocado
  • 100g smoked salmon
  • 1 tablespoon Greek yogurt
  • Fresh dill, chopped, to taste
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • paring knife
  • spoon
  • small bowl

To start, wash the cucumber and slice it in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon to create a hollow center for the filling. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with Greek yogurt until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, then mix in chopped fresh dill.

Next, thinly slice the smoked salmon into strips. Fill each cucumber boat with the avocado mixture, then top with slices of smoked salmon. Garnish with extra dill if desired.

These Cucumber Avocado Boats are not only visually stunning but also packed with healthy fats, protein, and vitamins. They make a perfect snack or light lunch option that will keep you feeling satisfied and energized.

Approximate total weight of the cooked dish: 250g
Number of servings: 2
Average weight of one serving: 125g
Approximate calorie count per serving: 150 calories

Pro tip: For an extra burst of flavor, squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the top of the boats before serving. The acidity will complement the creamy avocado and savory salmon perfectly!

I hope you give these Cucumber Avocado Boats a try soon. Feel free to customize them with your favorite toppings or add-ins to make them your own. Enjoy!
