Notes
This recipe serves 12 and contains 1 net carb per serving.
Turn these keto cucumber bites into cucumber cups by slicing the cucumbers into 1-inch sizes. Then scoop part of the middle out with a melon baller or a small spoon, so they form little cups.
Make a fun pattern in each cucumber piece by peeling green ribbons from the cucumber before slicing.
You can mix all the ingredients and spices in a sealable bag instead of a small bowl. Then, make a hole at one end and squeeze the contents directly onto the cucumber slices; kinda like you would with a piping bag.
For even more flavor, throw the tuna, the rest of the ingredients, and spices into the ziplock bag. Then allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for about two hours before placing on the cucumber discs and serving. Yum!
