Notes
Peeling And De-Seeding Cucumber: You can leave the skin on or peel the cucumber. Using a spoon to remove the seeds will allow the cucumber halves to turn into a “boat” and to allow room to stuff the cucumbers with the remaining ingredients. Without de-seeding, the toppings will not have an easy place to sit on the cucumber halves. You do not need to de-seed them, but, if you don’t, just be aware that the resulting snack will be messier to eat and different than the original recipe intended.
Net Carbs: Per serving, these cucumber boats contain 2.5 grams of net carbs. The recipe, as written, yields 2 servings and 1 serving is equivalent to 1 prepared cucumber boat. Net carbs are calculated by taking total carbs, subtracting fiber, and subtracting sugar alcohols.
