Scale

Sandwich Ingredients

  • 8 slices of bread (white or whole wheat)
  • 1 large cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, softened

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, soften the cream cheese by stirring it until smooth and creamy. Thinly slice the cucumber with a knife or mandoline for even, crisp pieces.
  2. Assemble the sandwiches: Spread an even layer of cream cheese on each slice of bread. Arrange cucumber slices on half of the bread slices, covering them thoroughly but evenly. Top with the remaining bread slices to form sandwiches. Cut each sandwich into halves or quarters as desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use day-old bread for easier slicing and less sogginess.
  • Chill the cucumber slices before assembling for an extra refreshing bite.
  • Optionally, add fresh herbs like dill or chives to the cream cheese for enhanced flavor.
  • Serve immediately to keep bread from becoming soggy.
