Why we're actually so hyped on this recipe

These cucumber cream cheese rounds are completely gluten free and are a great source of protein.

Plus, we're spicing this recipe up by adding goat cheese to the mix (this one's for you, hypo girls! ) so it's super light and easy to digest. Add the mixture onto the cucumber rounds, sprinkle with some EBTB, and you're good to go! And to get you even more hyped on this recipe, cucumbers are anti-inflammatory + their high water content helps flush out toxins while keeping you hydrated . It's a win win!
