Variation

Instead of slicing the cucumber into ribbons, just cut it into thick slices and with a small spoon cut into the cucumber core just around 1 inch to make space for the feta crumbles.
Stuff the cucumber slices with the feta crumbles and add Tomato or pepper slices at the top.
Enjoy your bite.
