Cut the ends from the cucumber for making the head and tail. On the head piece cut a V shape in the middle of the narrow end to make a gaping mouth
Cut a forked tongue from a slice of cucumber and put it in the mouth and use cocktail sticks to stick on eyes made out of olives or grapes
Slice the tomato, cheese and onion into equal sized slices. I got 6 slices from each and so cut 6 slices of cucumber to use but depending on how long you need your snake to be you can triple the cucumber slices and put a slice between everything
Layer your serving tray with salad leaves. You can add a dressing of choice at this point
Now start layering the tomato, mozzarella, onion and cucumber slices on top of the salad leaves. Make it bendy and curved around the tray like a snake
Add the head and tail and it's done!
This is a great side to the Halloween Man-Eating Bun and Savoury Severed Fingers in my profile!
You can use any leftover cucumber to add to water for a refreshing summer drink, chop it and make a raita or try my Green Gazpacho also in my profile!
