Ingredients
- turkey breast slices (deli, low sodium) 3 oz
- cucumber 1 cup
Method
-
Prepare the cucumber.
Wash the cucumber thoroughly under cold running water. Using a sharp knife, slice the cucumber into thin rounds or half-moons, about 1/8 inch thick. Place the cucumber slices in a bowl.
Tip: If you prefer, peel the cucumber before slicing to reduce bitterness. -
Arrange the turkey slices.
Take the 3 oz of turkey breast slices and lay them flat on a plate or serving dish. If the slices are large, you can cut them into smaller pieces for easier eating.
Tip: Using low sodium turkey breast helps keep the dish healthy and less salty. -
Combine and serve.
Place the cucumber slices alongside or on top of the turkey slices as desired. Optionally, you can sprinkle a pinch of black pepper or a few fresh herbs like dill or parsley for extra flavor.
Tip: Serve immediately for the freshest taste and crisp texture.
Pro tips
- Use a sharp knife to make clean, even cucumber slices.
