This easy recipe combines the creamy texture of cream cheese, the savory flavor of turkey ham, and the crispness of fresh cucumber, creating a delicious and satisfying treat.
Instructions:
- Take the 1/3 cup of cream cheese and let it soften on the counter for about 10 minutes if it's too hard to spread.
- Thinly slice the turkey ham into bite-sized strips or pieces, depending on your preference.
- Wash the cucumber thoroughly and slice it into thin rounds or half-moons, depending on the look you want for your sandwiches.
- Take a slice of cucumber and spread a thin layer of cream cheese on top.
- Add a small piece of turkey ham on top of the cream cheese.
- Place another slice of cucumber over the turkey ham to form a little sandwich.
- Continue this process until you have used up all of the cucumber slices, cream cheese, and turkey ham, creating as many mini sandwiches as possible.
- Arrange the mini sandwiches on a serving platter.
- Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to a few hours before serving.
- If serving later, cover the sandwiches with plastic wrap to keep them fresh.
Tips:
- Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier spreading.
- Use a mandolin slicer to achieve uniformly thin cucumber slices.
- Opt for whole grain or rye bread for a healthier alternative.
- Consider adding fresh herbs like dill or chives to the cream cheese for extra flavor.
- For a bit of crunch, you can add a layer of lettuce or spinach.
