Ingredients

Scale

For the keto pâté spread:

  • 1/2 cup chicken liver pâté (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  • Wash and dry the cucumber. Slice into thick rounds (about 1/2 inch).

  • Add optional toppings as desired.

  • Chill in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before serving for best flavor.

Notes
