Benedictine Sandwich
Nothing screams Kentucky Derby like the Benedictine Sandwich but don't be fooled- this quick and light sandwich is the perfect snack when it's hot out.
Ingredients
- 1 8 oz package of cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup green onion minced
- ½ hot house cucumber halved
- 1 tbsp mayo
- dash of hot sauce
- chopped dill, as much as your heart desires
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 loaf white bread
Recipe Instructions
- Take 1 half of the cucumber and chop into small pieces. Combine with the remaining spread ingredients. Taste for salt and pepper.
- Use a microplane to grate the remaining ¼ - ½ of the cucumber into the mixture. Be sure to add all of the juices. (This will give it a slight green color and make it a creamier texture).
- Spread a couple spoonfuls over one piece of bread. Top with more cucumber slices if desired. Top with other slice of bread and cut crusts off. Enjoy
