Easy to make low-carb cucumber rolls with turkey, cheese, pesto, spinach and veggies! Can easily be made vegetarian.
Ingredients
  • medium cucumbers (each will yield about 6 slices)
  • ¼ cup basil pesto
  • 6 slices mozzarella cheese slices, cut into ½ inch strips
  • 6 oz deli smoked turkey breast, shredded
  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced into matchsticks
  • ½ cup spinach, shredded
  • 1 dash of Tabasco sauce per roll-up
  • salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Slice the cucumbers lengthwise on a mandoline at about a 2mm setting. If you don’t have a mandoline, you can always use a vegetable peeler. Place the cucumber slices on parchment paper and pat dry with a paper towel.
  2. Spread about 1 teaspoon of pesto on each cucumber, then evenly distribute cheese, turkey, bell pepper and spinach on each. Sprinkle with a little salt and black pepper. Roll up and place seam down. If you want an even nicer presentation, you can stick a toothpick in the middle for easy appetizers! Serve with extra pesto or sauce of choice. Makes about 18 rolls.
