Cucumber Cream Cheese Sandwich Spread Recipes

Steps:

• Peel the cucumber and cut in chunks. If it's got a lot of big seeds, scoop some out and discard. Put it in a food processor and chop fine. If it's really moist, or you didn't seed it, then you may want to squeeze off some of the excess juice.
• Put the onion in the processor and chop. Add the rest of the ingredients. Process, scrape down the sides, and process again until smooth.
• I like it best on soft, white bread. But it's also great on crackers.

Steps:

• Press the cucumber through a colander to remove excess moisture.
• Process cream cheese and mayonnaise in a blender or food processor until smooth.
• Combine mixture, cucumber, dill and garlic salt chill until ready to use to allow flavors to blend.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, mayonnaise and Italian dressing mix. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.
• Spread the cream cheese blend onto slices of French bread. Top with a cucumber slice, and sprinkle with dill. You can make as many or few as you like. the cream cheese mixture keeps for about a week in the refrigerator so you can make them over and over again!

Steps:

• Cut cucumber with a mandolin to make very fine slices. Lay slices on paper towels to drain.
• In a bowl, stir cream cheese, mayonnaise, garlic salt and dill together until smooth.
• Spread each slice of bread with a layer of the cream cheese mixture. Then lay cucumber slices in overlapping rows on one half of the bread slices. Top with remaining wheat bread slices.
• Cut crusts from each sandwich and then cut into quarters.

Steps:

• Process cucumber chunks in a food processor until finely chopped. Put chopped cucumber and white onion in a piece of cheesecloth and twist to squeeze into a bowl as much liquid as possible from the vegetables, reserving the liquid.
• Assure the food processor bowl is dry before returning cucumber and onion mixture to the food processor. Add cream cheese, dill, hot pepper sauce, green food coloring, and cayenne pepper. Process the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides of the food processor bowl a few times to make sure everything is integrated. If too thick, add reserved liquid a teaspoon at a time.

Steps:

• Combine the cucumbers and cream cheese, then blend in the onion.
• Add in a tablespoon or two of mayonnaise and blend until the mixture is soft and spreadable. Add a little more mayonnaise to soften further.
• Cut the crusts off the bread, then either cut each piece into fourths or cut into diamonds.
• Spread mixture over half the bread pieces, then top with another piece of bread.
• Garnish with parsley or cucumber.
• Tips & Warnings.
• You can also leave the sandwiches open-faced.
• Try this method with tuna or chicken salad, too.

Steps:

• Peel, core, and seed the cucumber, then grate.
• Sprinkle cucumber with salt in a colander and toss (this allows the cucumber to"sweat" out excess water); let stand for 30 minutes, stirring once or twice, then remove and gently squeeze liquid from cucumber.
• Mix grated cucumber with remaining ingredients and chill for a least an hour before serving.
• Serve with crackers or bread.
