Servings: 12–14

INGREDIENTS

  • Veggie Cream Cheese Filling
  • 230 grams low-fat cream cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives
  • ½ teaspoon dill
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • 1 large carrot, peeled and diced very small
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon pepper
  • Assembly
  • 6 small cucumbers
  • 14 pretzel sticks
  • Goldfish® Cheddar Crackers

PREPARATION

  1. Combine all of the veggie cream cheese ingredients in a large bowl.

  2. Cut 4 of the cucumbers lengthwise, then cut each half again widthwise so you have 4 equal pieces from each cucumber.

  3. Scoop seeds out of center of each piece to make boat.

  4. Use other 2 cucumbers to make boat sails. Use mandoline or peeler to cut very thin cucumber slices and skewer each side of slice on pretzel stick to resemble sail. **Tip: Pieces farthest from seeds will be most sturdy.

  5. To assemble, fill each boat with veggie cream cheese. Stick pretzel mast in one side and place Goldfish® Cheddar Cracker sailors into position aboard boat.

  6. Play with snack until you can’t resist, then serve and enjoy!
