One of my favorite things to eat is collard green wraps with Sun-dried tomato spread, cucumbers, sprouts and avocado. Cucumber Bird's Nest is a variation of that. I wanted to make it an appetizer because that's what I'm in to right now.
1/2 cucumber, sliced into 1/4-in, it should be about 18 slices1 avocado, dicedclover sprouts
SUN-DRIED TOMATO SPREAD (1-1/2 c)1/2 c sun-dried tomatoes, soaked, reserve water2 garlic cloves, minced1 small tomato, remove seeds, diced1 date, pitted and soaked1 T apple cider vinegar1 T olive oil1 T Italian seasoning
Combine all ingredients, except sun-dried tomatoes in a food processor. Add sun-dried tomatoes last, along with reserved water to create a thick mixture.
To assemble, spread sun-dried tomato mixture spread on top of cucumber slices. Arrange a small stack of sprouts and then 2-3 pieces of avocado on the tomato mixture.
