Ingredients
  

2 medium cucumbers

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon fresh dill, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)

1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried chives)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning

Optional: cherry tomatoes or radishes for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the cucumbers: Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

    Make the cream cheese mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt. Mix well with a spatula until smooth and creamy.

      Season the mixture: Add the chopped dill, chives, garlic powder, onion powder, and sea salt to the cream cheese mixture. Stir until fully combined and the everything bagel flavors are evenly distributed.

        Assemble the bites: Take a cucumber slice and spread a generous tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture on top. Repeat this process for each cucumber slice.

          Add the finishing touch: Sprinkle the everything bagel seasoning generously over each topped cucumber bite for that necessary crunch and flavor.

            Garnish (optional): If desired, top with a small piece of cherry tomato or a slice of radish for added color and a surprise burst of flavor.

              Chill and serve: Place the assembled cucumber bites on a serving platter and chill in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.
