Cucumber Sandwiches

Cucumber Sandwiches

Day 2 Week 2 of BM #53 - 

These cucumber sandwiches are great for outdoor picnics, as a tea time snack and or as breakfast. I first tasted these sandwiches which my friend had made for a picnic. They can be made ahead and refrigerated as well.

One disadvantage of using Jalapeno cream cheese was that my little one couldn't eat these. But the rest of us had these for a snack. I made special sandwiches for the little one with plain cream cheese though. :)


Cucumber Sandwiches

Ingredients - 

Bread Slices 8
Jalapeno Cream Cheese 2 Tbsp
Cucumber, shredded 3/4 cup


Cucumber Sandwiches

Method Of Preparation -

In a mixing bowl, add cream cheese at room temperature. 

Squeeze out the water from the shredded cucumber and add it to the cream cheese. Mix well.

Cut out the sides of the bread slices.

Apply the cream cheese - cucumber mixture on both sides of the bread slices and slice them diagonally to make triangles.

Refrigerate until serving.

Serve with Tea or as Breakfast.
