How to Make Stuffed Cucumber Cups

  1. Using a vegetable peeler or a fork, create decorative stripes along the length of each cucumber.
  2. Remove the ends of the cucumbers and slice into 3/4-inch thick rounds.
  3. Gently scoop out the seeds from the center of each cucumber round using a melon baller or small spoon, creating small cups.
  4. Set aside 1 tablespoon of the chopped walnuts for garnish.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the crumbled blue cheese, mayonnaise, chopped walnuts, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined and creamy.
  6. Spoon the blue cheese mixture into the cucumber cups, filling them generously.
  7. Sprinkle the reserved walnuts over the top of each stuffed cucumber cup.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the cucumbers to chill before serving.
