Easy Open Face Cucumber Tea Sandwiches Recipes

OPEN FACE CUCUMBER TEA SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Wash the outside of the cucumber well. With a box grater, shred about half of the cucumber, skin and all. Place on a layer of paper towels, cover with another paper towel and twist to remove any excess moisture.
• In a medium bowl mix the cucumber, cream cheese, mayonnaise, green onion tops, and salt. Stir well.
• Allow mixture to sit, covered, in the fridge for at least an hour or overnight for flavors to develop.
• When you are ready to assemble, cut circles of white bread using a 2" cutter, leaving off the crusts. If you don't have a cutter, an empty prescription bottle is good for cutting circles or you can use a small drinking glass.
• Add about a teaspoon of the cucumber mixture to the top of each circle of bread and garnish with very thin slices of cucumber, or a sprinkle of paprika for color. Serve immediately so the bread doesn't get soggy.
