How to Make Cucumber Hummus Bites with Dill

Spoon or pipe about 1 tablespoon of hummus onto each cucumber slice.
Top each hummus dollop with a pinch of finely chopped fresh dill.
Lightly dust bites with paprika or smoked paprika.
Place bites on a platter and refrigerate for 5 minutes before serving.
