for 6 pieces of bread:
In a food processor, combine 3 oz. cream cheese with 2 Tablespoons real mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon minced, fresh garlic and 2 teaspoons dry Italian seasoning. Mix until fully incorporated. Spread the mixture evenly among 6 slices of sandwich bread.
Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground pepper.
Top with thin slices of cucumber (peeled or unpeeled.)
Put the tops on the sandwiches. Using a sharp chef’s knife, remove the crusts.
Cut into fourths and voila…the quintessential, English cucumber sandwich.
(recipe variation ~ add fresh basil leaves! shown in photo at very top)
We enjoyed a lovely afternoon…
I served the lunch in my new favorite style…
