Cucumber sandwiches don't have to be boring. Just add a little TJ's Red Pepper, Garlic, and Parmesan cream cheese spread for a tangy and flavorful cream cheese.
1 Persian cucumber, peeled and partially seeded
2 - 3 T. Trader Joe's Red Pepper, Garlic, and Parmesan cream cheese spread
2 slices favorite sandwich bread, toasting is optional
optional additions: 1-2 slices heirloom tomato, sprinkled with salt and pepper, crispy bacon slices,
bean sprouts or arugula, topped with a squeeze of lemon juice
Trim the ends off of the cucumber; slice lengthwise into long, thin strips, which are less likely to fall out of the sandwich than round slices.
Spread a layer of cream cheese on each slice of bread; top one with cucumber slices and any additional ingredients. Put sandwich together. Slice in half or into quarters.
Serve.
1 sandwich.
