Ingredients:
One large cucumber, peeled, seeded and finely chopped
8 ounces cream cheese (“light” style OK) at room temperature
3/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup finely chopped chives or scallions
Thinly sliced cracked wheat or white bread, crusts removed
Lots of edible blossoms: nasturtiums, chives, borage, calendula, bean flowers or herb blossoms, rinsed and patted dry
Squeeze chopped cucumber in a kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as possible; set aside. Blend the cream cheese, seasonings and chives or scallions. Add cucumber and combine well but do not overmix. Spread on bread and cut into finger-sized open sandwiches.
To serve: Decorate the tops of the sandwiches with petals of various edible flowers.

These are lovely, and with this lingering dreary winter still with us in So. Ca I think a spring garden party would be a wonderful idea right about now and these sandwiches would be a hit. I have lots of flowers blooming right now. Time for a party!
I just adore these !!
Perfect for a May Day lunch !
