Peggy Ledger was one of the first patients that I ever took care of. She was so much fun to be around; always laughing, no matter what her health situation was. She made these sandwiches and brought them to us at Sterlington Hospital to enjoy.

How To Make cucumber sandwiches

  • 1
    Peel two cucumbers and grate or process in a food processor. Add salt and pepper. Let set for 1/2 hour, drain; but save juice.
  • 2
    Combine cream cheese and dip mix in mixer. Combine in grated cucumbers and a tiny small amount of green food coloring.
  • 3
    Keep this in a covered bowl overnight in the refrigerator. The next day add enough cucumber juice to be able to spread mixture. Spread on trimmed white bread and cut into fourths.
  • 4
    Variations: Cut bread slices into rounds. Spread with cucumber mix. Slice 2 unpeeled cucumbers into very thin rounds. Place a cucumber slice on top of mix on bread. A clean baby food jar is good to use to cut the rounds out of the bread.
