Cucumber Sandwich

The other day I told you about a new great recipe site called The Tasty Kitchen. {Click here to read about it}

Well, the recipe I want to share this week is a recipe I got on the Tasty Kitchen website.

One of The Bugman's customers gave us a bag full of cucumbers. We love cucumbers. We usually eat them as a snack dunked in ranch dressing or I slice some for dinner and drench them in Light Italian Dressing. But lately I had been craving a good Cucumber Sandwich.

While I was loading my recipes to the Tasty Kitchen site, I was also busy making friends and reading their recipes. While browsing around I "ran into" Angie of the Arthur Clan! Angie is an amazing photographer AND one of the co-founders of i♥Faces! Now, Angie claims to be a "non-cook" but what do I find in HER RECIPE BOX? Cucumber Sandwiches!! YES! SCORE one for ME!

I changed up Angie's recipe just a bit to accommodate what I had on hand.....so here you go!


Cucumber Sandwiches

1 YUMMY cucumber- sliced

1 8oz tub of Cream Cheese (I used the 1/3 less fat variety - gotta save where you can, and this stuff taste like the real thing)

3/4 of a packet of Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing mix

1/4 tsp Dill Weed

Salt & Pepper to taste

slices of your favorite bread (I had honey wheat from the bakery)

Mix dry dressing packet and dill weed right into the cream cheese container. Mix until well blended.

Spread a thick layer of seasoned cream cheese onto one slice of bread. Top with several slices of cucumber.

Salt and Pepper to taste.

Place another slice of bread ontop and ENJOY!!

Thanks Angie!!

Tasty Kitchen!

Many of you, I'm sure, are familiar with The Pioneer Woman, Ree and all of her AMAZING recipes and photography!

Well, Ree has gone and done it again! She has started another incredible site, and this time all of us get to be a part of it!! The Tasty Kitchen....Favorite Recipes From Real Kitchens.

The Tasty Kitchen is social network that allows home cooks to share and print recipes, rate them, and add notes, even make friends. It has Ree's flair for modern style, country sweetness, and upbeat sass. The site is really easy to use: just search by recipe or category, you can share your own, by adding your recipes to your recipe box after you join “Fraternal Order of the Mitt.”

I've already started my Recipe Box with several recipes I've posted here on my blog, and I plan to continue to add more recipes! I REALLY like the print feature on the Tasty Kitchen Site.

Be sure to add me as your friend after you set up your new account too!
