Cucumber Bites with Herbed Cheese and Salmon Mousse
Indianapolis blogger Annie Marshall fills most of the bites with pink Salmon Mousse and some with white Herbed Cheese. If you like, streamline by choosing just one filling and doubling its ingredients.

Cut cucumber into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Gently scoop out most of the seeds from the center of each slice, leaving a small portion to keep the filling from falling out. Arrange slices on a serving platter. Pipe a dollop of the Salmon Mousse or Herbed Cheese onto each slice. Serve immediately, or chill up to 6 hours.
