Cucumber Tasties

Here is my version of what I call Roasted Cucumber Tasties. Its a great substitute for bread when wanting a bruschetta but don't or cant eat bread. It's great tasting and has tremendous flavor.

Great of serving your guest when wanting a light snack or just for yourself to try. Almost the same as the bruschetta recipe.

Ingredients:

1 Sweet Red Pepper
1 Garlic Bulb
1 Cucumber (Slices Desired)
Olive Oil
Pepper
Salt



Directions:

Pre-Heat oven 375F (185-190C). Take the sweet red pepper and cut off the stem end, de-seed and slice horizontally then slice again. Drizzle with olive oil. Next take the garlic bulb and cut about 1/2 inch of the top. Drizzle garlic with the tbsp of olive oil. Cover the garlic bulb completely with foil. Place both the red pepper slice and garlic bulb onto baking tray. Roast for about 20-25 mins.




Once the timer is down to about 2-3 mins slice your cucumber. Take out the red pepper and garlic. Peel a garlic clove and slice, slice the sweet pepper to length desired and put on cucumber. Put sweet pepper slices on the cucumber slices, then add the garlic slices (amount desired) Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle salt and pepper on top. Done

Serves 3-4
