CUCUMBER TUNA BOATS

For a refreshing summer meal, you can't beat this creamy tuna salad mounded into cucumber halves. Hard-cooked eggs make the salad extra hearty, and the crispness of the cucumber is delightful. It's an extra-special luncheon entree or light supper. -Mildred Stubbs, Hamlet, North Carolina

Steps:

Cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out the seeds. Cut each cucumber half crosswise into 4 pieces and place on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt. Let stand while making the filling.
Beat the cream cheese and mayonnaise in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the celery, bell peppers, crabmeat, seafood seasoning, lemon zest, lemon juice and chopped dill.
Pat the cucumbers dry (to remove the liquid and salt). Spoon the crab salad into the hollowed cucumbers. Garnish with more dill. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
