4. Spoon the mixture evenly onto the cucumber halves.

5. Sprinkle with fresh chives for a pop of colour and extra flavour.

6. Enjoy straight away while crisp and refreshing.

Why Your Body Will Thank You

Cucumber provides natural hydration and a refreshing base, while cherry tomatoes bring a rich source of antioxidants that support overall wellbeing. Fresh basil and spinach add a gentle nutrient boost, contributing fibre and plant compounds that are a valuable part of a balanced diet. The drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil ties everything together, adding healthy fats and a touch of richness.

Bring It to the Table

These stuffed cucumbers are made for sharing. Enjoy them as a light bite at home, pack them into your lunchbox, or prepare a plate for friends and family. You can even spread a little hummus on the cucumber first for extra creaminess and plant-based protein. Try them out, share your twist, and keep nourishing yourself with fresh, vibrant flavours.
