Delicious Cucumber Salad Sandwiches are light, creamy, and crisp sandwiches made with thinly sliced cucumbers and a herbed cream cheese spread. Perfect for tea time, picnics, or an easy refreshing lunch.

Ingredients

  • 1–2 English cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill or chives, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder or onion powder (optional)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 8 slices of white, whole wheat, or soft sandwich bread
  • 2 tablespoons butter (optional, for spreading on bread)

Instructions

  1. Thinly slice cucumbers using a mandoline or sharp knife. Lightly salt and set aside or pat dry with paper towels to reduce moisture.
  2. In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese, mayo or yogurt, chopped herbs, optional seasonings, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. If desired, lightly butter the bread slices to prevent sogginess.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on each slice of bread.
  5. Layer cucumber slices over half the bread slices.
  6. Top with remaining bread, press gently, and trim crusts if preferred.
  7. Cut into halves or quarters. Serve immediately or chill for 15–30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use English cucumbers for best texture and no need to peel.
  • Butter the bread to help prevent sogginess if making ahead.
  • Chill the sandwiches before serving for best flavor and presentation.
  • Add radishes or hard-boiled egg for variety.
