- Ready In:
- 25mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Yields:
-
20 sandwiches
- Serves:
- 20
ingredients
- 2 (453.59 g) package reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
- 28.34 g packet hidden valley ranch dressing mix
- 4 cucumbers (Really depends on how thick you want your slices)
- 2 loaf French baguettes
directions
- In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese and ranch dressing mix packet. Stir until well-blended.
- Slice cucumbers into relatively thin slices (I cut mine to approximately 1/4").
- Slice baguette into medium slices (mine were about 1/2"). For a "daintier" sandwich, trim off crusts.
- Spread cream cheese mixture onto one slice of bread. (I prefer a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture!).
- Place 4-5 cucumber slices on top of cream cheese.
- Spread cream cheese mixture onto a second piece of bread and place the bread on top of the cucumbers, cream cheese side down.
- Repeat!
- NOTE: I recently made this recipe for a bridal shower bruch I hosted. I knew the morning of the shower would be crazy, so I sliced the cucumbers and mixed up the cream cheese spread the night before. It tasted great and made things so much easier on the morning of the shower!

Hello, all! Thanks to all the great recipes and tips from the community here at Recipezaar, I think I'm finally getting this whole cooking thing down!
FYI: When I review recipes, I take into account that I have to alter recipes so my BF will actually eat it - no mushrooms and no peppers! I realize this alters the taste slightly, but there's not much I can do about it if I don't want him to go on a hunger strike! I also try to use low fat and/or low cal alteratives. Gotta watch that waistline! :)
I always try to give a kind, thoughtful review, even if the recipe didn't work out for me.
