Ingredients
  

8 oz feta cheese, crumbled

4 oz cream cheese, softened

2 tablespoons Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 large cucumbers

Fresh dill, for garnish

Cherry tomatoes, halved (optional, for decoration)

Instructions
 

Whip the Cheese: In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta, softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, and dried oregano. Using an electric mixer or a food processor, blend until the mixture is creamy and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Prepare the Cucumbers: Wash the cucumbers and cut them into thick slices, about 1 inch each. If desired, you can peel them for a smoother texture, but leaving the skin on adds a nice crunch and color.

      Assemble the Bites: Place a generous dollop of the whipped feta mixture on each cucumber slice. Use a spoon or a piping bag for a decorative look. If you are using cherry tomatoes, place half a tomato on top of the whipped feta for an added pop of color and flavor.

        Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle freshly chopped dill on top of each cucumber bite for a fresh touch. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for a bit before serving to let the flavors meld.

          Enjoy: These delicious whipped feta cucumber bites make a perfect appetizer or a light snack. Enjoy the creamy, tangy flavors combined with the refreshing cucumber!
