Keto Italian Sub Cucumber Recipe:
Ingredients
Cream Cheese
Olive Oil
Italian Seasoning
Cucumber
Mild Banana Peppers
Salami
Capicola
Pepperoni
Instructions
1. Soften the cream cheese in the microwave for about 15 seconds. Then, mix it together with the olive oil and italian seasoning. It should have a consistency similar to mayonnaise. Set this aside.
2. Prepare a large (approximately 12 oz) cucumber by removing the ends. Slice the cucumber through the middle both ways, leaving you with 4 pieces. Use a spoon to remove the wet seeds and core. Pat the cucumbers dry with a paper towel as well.
3. Spread your cream cheese spread into the centers of 2 pieces of cucumber. Top the cream cheese off with about 3 banana pepper rings each.
4. For each cucumber sub, lay 3 slices of deli meat on top of each other (1 salami, 1 capicola, 1 pepperoni), roll them up, and place them in the center of the empty cucumber halves.
5. Sandwich your cucumbers together so you have 2 long subs. At this point, you may bite into them and enjoy. You may also slice each sub in half again, leaving you with 4 smaller portions for snacking. Enjoy!
