    Anyone have a good cucumber sandwich recipe? I love them but, have never made them.

    My English friend spreads softened butter on slices of white bread and puts thinly sliced cucumbers and dill weed in between. Cut the crusts off (of course!) and slice on the diagonal twice.

    I've also tried a mixture of butter and cream cheese and different breads (pumpernickel, rye, wheat). My kids and their friends love "finger sandwiches." I make PB&J finger sammies too.

    We keep it simple...7-grain bread, spread with plain cream cheese and top with thinly sliced cucumbers. I hate cucumbers but I LOVE these sandwiches! We eat them open face.

    Simple is my method - whole wheat bread, light mayo on each slice, thinly sliced cucumbers overlapping on the bread, salt and pepper ... mmm ... a very good summer sandwich!

    we use cream cheese and cucumbers on party bread - rye, usually - we buy it at the end of the bread aisle - it's miniature loaves of 'party bread'.

    Mum is from the UK and all she did was butter bread, put thinly sliced cucumbers, salt & pepper. Sunday tea usually included these and fresh scones. :)
