Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a medium bowl, blend 4 ounces of softened cream cheese with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of dried parsley, 1 teaspoon of dried dill, ½ teaspoon of garlic powder, and ½ teaspoon of onion powder. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Use a hand mixer or a fork to mix until the spread is smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  2. Wash and dry 1 large cucumber, then slice it into ¼-inch rounds using a sharp knife or a mandoline for even thickness.
  3. Place the cucumber slices on a paper towel, lightly pressing to absorb excess moisture.
  4. Spread 1 to 2 teaspoons of the creamy mixture onto each cucumber slice.
  5. Generously sprinkle everything bagel seasoning over the cream cheese-topped cucumber rounds.
  6. Arrange your Bagel Cucumber Snacks on a serving platter. Serve immediately.
