How to Make It

Step 1: Slice the Cucumbers

Wash and dry the cucumbers, then slice them however you like—rounds, half-moons, or spears all work great. Place them in a mixing bowl.

Step 2: Add the Cheese

Sprinkle in ¼ cup of shredded reduced-fat cheese. It adds a creamy texture and a touch of indulgence, while keeping the SmartPoints under control.

Step 3: Mix in Bacon Bits & Seasonings

Add 2 tablespoons of bacon bits to the cucumbers. Then season with a pinch of black pepper, a dash of Old Bay, and a dash of Salad Supreme seasoning. These add bold flavor without the need for extra salt or fat.

Step 4: Drizzle with Dressing

Pour 2 tablespoons of avocado lime ranch dressing over the mixture. Toss everything gently until the cucumbers are evenly coated.

Pro Tip: Want to make your own lighter version? Blend a few tablespoons of mashed avocado with lime juice and plain non-fat Greek yogurt or a plant-based alternative. Creamy, tangy, and totally WW-friendly!

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Give the bowl one last gentle mix, then serve immediately for peak crunch and flavor. Or refrigerate for later—just give it a quick toss before eating.
