Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 g Cream cheese
- 8 slices Whole grain sandwich bread
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 medium Carrot
- 2 tbsp Fresh dill
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the cucumber. Grate the carrot using a coarse grater. Set both aside.
In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, fresh dill, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice of bread to prevent it from becoming soggy.
On the unbuttered side of four slices of bread, evenly spread the cream cheese mixture.
Top the cream cheese layer with a lettuce leaf, a few slices of cucumber, and a small handful of grated carrot.
Place the remaining slices of bread on top, buttered side facing outward, to complete the sandwiches.
Cut the sandwiches diagonally or into halves as preferred and serve immediately.
