  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

– 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
– 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (such as dill or chives), finely chopped
– 1 teaspoon lemon juice
– 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
– 1 bell pepper, diced
– 1 large carrot, grated
– 1 cup spinach or mixed greens
– 12 slices whole-grain or white bread (crusts removed)
– Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Creating Veggie Cream Cheese Finger Sandwiches is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Cream Cheese: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with fresh herbs and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste.

2. Prepare the Bread: Lay out the slices of bread on a clean cutting board or plate. Use a rolling pin to gently flatten each slice.

3. Spread the Cream Cheese: Evenly spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture onto one side of each slice of bread.

4. Layer the Vegetables: On half of the slices, place a layer of spinach, followed by cucumber slices, diced bell pepper, and grated carrot.

5. Close the Sandwiches: Top with the remaining slices of bread, cream cheese side down.

6. Trim the Edges: Using a sharp knife, carefully trim the edges to create an even, neat sandwich.

7. Cut into Fingers: Cut each sandwich into quarters or halves, creating finger-sized portions.

8. Chill (Optional): Place the sandwiches in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the sandwiches to firm up, making them easier to handle.

9. Arrange for Serving: Once chilled, arrange the finger sandwiches on a platter for presentation.
