Cucumber Crackers

Cucumbers are low in calories – being mostly made up of water, which makes them a perfect snack for quenching thirst and hunger.

According to Organic Facts:

“The flesh of cucumbers is rich in vitamins A, C, and folic acid while the hard skin of cucumbers is rich in fiber and a range of minerals include magnesium, molybdenum, and potassium.”

Tip: Cucumber rounds make the perfect cracker replacement. They are crisp, provide a firm base, and aren’t overly powerful on taste. So you can top them with whatever you like for a super healthy diabetic snack.

Or, even use them as crackers for dips. The idea is to replace your processed crackers with cucumber crackers instead (see recipe below).

As you can see in the image above, we’ve used avocado, cheese, sundried tomatoes, hummus and sprouts. But you can really use any toppings you’ve got on hand.
