CUCUMBER SANDWICH RECIPE



Cucumber Sandwich Recipe image

The easiest and best tasting cucumber sandwich you can make!

Provided by Christina Conte

Categories     Sandwiches & Snacks

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 slices thin-sliced, white bread (or any other choice)
2 ounces, room temperature cream cheese
½ small cucumber, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Peel the cucumber, and slice it thinly. I used a simple OXO slicer for quick, even slices.
  • Spread soft/room temperature cream cheese on two slices of bread.
  • Arrange the cucumber slices, overlapping slightly, on one slice of bread and top with the other.
  • Slice off the edges with a sharp serrated knife, wiping with a damp paper towel after each cut. Next, cut into fingers (or triangles). Whether you cut them into fingers or triangles, you'll end up with two finger sandwiches.
  • If you need to make cucumber sandwiches ahead of time, keep them in a sealed container with a paper towel inside for a few hours, and refrigerate them.
