Ingredients:

8 slices white bread
100g
1 cucumber
300g
2 tbsp mayonnaise salad dressing
30g
1/4 onion onion
80g
1 dash salt
0.40g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients
- Wash the cucumber thoroughly. Peel it if desired, then slice it thinly into rounds.
- Peel the onion and slice it finely into thin rings or half-rings.
2. Make the Creamy Dressing
- In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise salad dressing with a dash of salt. Stir to mix well.
3. Assemble the Sandwiches
- Lay out 8 slices of white bread on a clean work surface.
- Spread a thin, even layer of the creamy mayo dressing on each slice of bread.
4. Add the Vegetables
- Distribute the cucumber slices evenly over 4 of the bread slices, ensuring that each slice is well-covered but not overloaded.
- Spread the onion rings or half-rings evenly on top of the cucumber slices on those same 4 slices of bread.
5. Finish the Sandwiches
- Place the remaining 4 slices of bread on top of the cucumber and onion-topped bread slices to complete the sandwiches.
- Press down gently to hold the sandwiches together.
6. Serve
- Optionally, you can cut off the crusts and cut each sandwich into halves or quarters for a more elegant presentation.
- Arrange the sandwiches on a serving plate and enjoy immediately.

Tips:

- Use fresh, crispy cucumbers for the best texture and flavor.

- If you're not a fan of raw onions, try using sweet onions or lightly pickling the onions before adding them to the sandwich.

- For a healthier option, you can use whole grain bread instead of white bread.

- Spread the mayonnaise evenly to ensure each bite has a consistent flavor.

- Add a sprinkle of black pepper or fresh herbs like dill or parsley to enhance the taste.
