These cucumber and tomato crowns are perfect for adding some healthy vegetables to your party food table, and they're so cute, nobody could resist them!

Cucumber and Tomato Crowns
Ingredients (makes 8 crowns):
- ½ cucumber
- 2 tomatoes
Method:
Wash and pat dry the tomatoes and cucumber.
Trim the end off the cucumber and discard then cut the remaining cucumber into two equal sized pieces.
Using a small sharp knife, divide one of the cucumber piece in half again by cutting from the outside into the centre in a zig-zag pattern. Pull the two pieces of cucumber apart – they should look like crowns. Repeat with the other piece of cucumber until you have 4 cucumber crowns.
Cut each tomato in half using the same zig-zag technique to create four tomato crowns.
Pop on a plate or platter, then cover and pop in the fridge until ready to serve.
Enjoy!
