Total Time: 20 min | Prep: 20 min, Cook: 0 min
Serves: 12
Difficulty: Easy
PAIRS WITH: Cense Rosé
INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup(s) reduced calorie mayonnaise
- 1 tsp prepared wasabi paste
- 1/2 tsp soy sauce
- 1/2 large cucumber, seedless, cut into twenty-four 1/4-inch-thick slices

- 8 oz cooked shrimp, about 24 small, peeled and deveined
- 2 large fresh radishes, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup mint leaves, left whole (for garnish)
NOTES
We prefer the flavor of the wasabi mayo when made with wasabi paste, but if you can't find it, wasabi powder works, too.
INSTRUCTIONS
To make wasabi mayonnaise, in a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, wasabi paste and soy sauce until smooth.
To assemble appetizers, place cucumber slices on a serving platter and spread each with 1/2 teaspoon of wasabi mayonnaise. Place a slice of avocado on top and then top each with a shrimp; sprinkle with radish and top with a mint leaf. Yields 2 appetizers per serving.
