Best Picnic Recipes: Fiery Greek Yogurt Roll Ups Picnic recipes don't get simpler than this appetizer, which offers spice, crunch and creaminess -- guilt-free. Inspired by Mediterranean cooking, this is picnic food for those who love fresh flavors.
Ingredients (serves 6):
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 quart Greek yogurt
1 avocado, halved, scooped and mashed
1 tablespoon fresh herbs, finely chopped (such as chives, tarragon or cilantro)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 Habanero pepper, thinly sliced
6 baby cucumbers, or 1 large seedless cucumber, cut into slices with a peeler and patted dry with paper towels
Directions:
The day before your picnic, add sea salt to Greek yogurt and let drain in the fridge for 24 hours. Next day, combine 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt, avocado, herbs and lime juice in a medium bowl until smooth. Spoon into a plastic zip lock bag. Cut bag at the corner to make a half-inch opening. Squeeze mixture lengthwise onto cucumber slices. Roll up like a pinwheel. Top with a small slice of pepper.
