Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large cucumber
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese
- 8 cherry tomatoes
- 4 deli turkey slices
- 4 romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 half avocado
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- 8 toothpicks
Instructions
1. Begin by washing the cucumber and slice it into 16 thick rounds, approximately 1/4 inch in thickness. These will act as your 'bread' for the sandwich.
2. In a small bowl, mash the half avocado with a fork, then add the lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of cream cheese onto 8 of the cucumber slices.
4. Cut the deli turkey slices in half, creating 8 pieces.
5. On each cream cheese-topped cucumber slice, place a half slice of turkey, followed by a small piece of romaine lettuce.
6. Halve the cherry tomatoes and place one half on top of the romaine on each slice.
7. Add a dollop of the avocado mixture on top of the tomatoes.
8. Cover each assembly with another cucumber slice, securing the 'mini sandwich' with a toothpick.
9. Repeat until all sandwiches are assembled, then serve fresh.
