Drop-in guests? Here?s a quick cucumber and hummus appetizer solution.


By nwaFoodie (Visit website)









I must be in a cucumber state of mind. 


A few days ago I blogged about a crowd-pleasing cucumber salad with yogurt-dill sauce and here I am?  chattering on about cucumbers.  Again.


Cucumbers are like pets.  They are there for you when you need a pick-me-up and they are loyally steadfast companions when you need them most.  


Event:  Drop-in guests


Pantry check:  Hothouse, slicing or everyday Walmart bin-dump cucumbers


Refrigerator check:  Hummus  


Plating check:  black sesame seeds or a drop of basil pesto or a bit of sun-dried tomato


Process check:  Peel cucumbers to remove skins.  Slice into bite sized pieces.  Spoon cute little dollop of hummus on top.  Top with sesame seeds, pesto, or sun-dried tomato


Smugness check:  Yeah, just a little something you ?whipped up.? You?re so good.


I'd love to hear about ways you quickly whip up your own unexpected/expected appetizers!  Leave a comment or two!
