Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare the cucumbers by rinsing them under cold water, peeling lightly if desired, and slicing into half-inch thick rounds.
Hollow out the centers of each cucumber slice to create wells for the filling.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and light ranch dressing, blending until smooth.
Fold in dill and garlic salt to the mixture, tasting for seasoning.
Transfer the filling into a piping bag and pipe into each hollowed cucumber slice.
Pat the cucumber slices with a paper towel to remove excess moisture if needed.
Top each filled cucumber with a half cherry tomato.
Sprinkle with black pepper and serve immediately or chill until ready.
