Fairy toadstools

Serves:

Makes 16

Ingredients

• 1 small cucumber
• 90g tasty cheese
• 8 large cherry tomatoes
• 1 tbsp cream cheese

Method

Cut cucumber into 3cm rounds, and each round into four batons. Cut tasty cheese into batons approximately 5cm long and 1cm thick. These will be the stalks of your toadstools. Arrange them on your serving platter.

Halve tomatoes and place them cut side down on a plate or chopping board.

Place cream cheese into a small resealable bag. Snip a small triangle off the corner and push the cheese downwards, twisting the bag. Carefully pipe several small spots onto each tomato.

Place decorated tomatoes on top of cucumber and cheese batons. Serve.
