Step 1

1. An interesting Lenten salad that makes a great appetizer. You can use any filling for the cucumbers. This kind of salad in cucumber is most often prepared with boiled poultry and fried mushrooms. I decided to make a salad suitable for fasting. So, first, remove the center from the cucumber.

2. It's better to use long cucumbers to make nice "boats." Cut the cheese, herbs, and tomatoes, mix them together, and dress with oil. You can optionally add a little lemon juice.
