Recipe By : Taste of Home - Dorothy Pritchett Wills Point, Texas
Yield: about 1 1/2 dozen

1 large cucumber
3 ounces cream cheese -- softened

2 teaspoons fresh parsley -- minced
1 teaspoon fresh dill -- minced
1 teaspoon onion -- grated
20 pimiento strips -- (20 to 26)

Dorothy Pritchett of Wills Point, Texas suggests. "These cheese-filled slices look so pretty on an appetizer plate."

Run the tines of a fork lengthwise down the cucumber. Cut a 1 inch slice form each end. Cut cucumber in half lengthwise; remove and discard seeds. Place cucumber cut side down on paper towel for 10 minutes.

Combine cheeses, parsley, dill and onion; spoon into cucumber halves. Put halves back together; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours.

Cut into 1/2 inch slices; garnish with pimiento and dill.
