Description
Greek Cucumber Bites with Feta and Olives are bold, briny, and bursting with Mediterranean flavor. Crisp cucumber rounds topped with creamy feta, kalamata olives, and fresh herbs make a vibrant no-cook appetizer inspired by the flavors of Greece.
Ingredients
2 large English cucumbers, sliced into rounds
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup kalamata olives, sliced
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Slice the cucumbers into 1/4 inch thick rounds and pat dry.
2. In a small bowl combine feta, olives, tomatoes, red onion, parsley, olive oil, oregano, and black pepper.
3. Spoon the Greek topping onto each cucumber round.
4. Drizzle lightly with extra olive oil.
5. Garnish with a pinch of dried oregano and fresh parsley.
6. Serve immediately or chill briefly before serving.
Notes
Use full-fat block feta and crumble it yourself for the creamiest texture.
Add a drizzle of lemon juice over the topping for extra brightness.
Substitute kalamata olives with green olives for a milder flavor.
