Surprise Sandwich

I was given this recipe by an older woman from OK, 30 years ago. It is always a hit with adults who spend time trying to figure out the ingredients as the chili sauce makes it look like it has some kind of ground meat in it, and they can see the eggs and vegetables. This is not particularly a kid-favorite - because of the vegies. Prep-time does not include boiling the eggs.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Yields: 8 sandwiches

Ingredients

• 8  ounces cream cheese (at room temp.)
• 3  tablespoons onions, chopped
• 3  tablespoons bell peppers, chopped
• 3  tablespoons chili sauce
• 3  hard-boiled eggs, chopped
• 2⁄3 cup pecans, chopped
• 1  loaf  bread (no crust-saves work)

Directions

1. Mix the first 4 ingredients well; then fold in the eggs and nuts - so that the eggs don't get smashed.
2. Salt and pepper mixture.
3. Butter one slice of bread, put mixture on the another, then put the two slices together to form a sandwich.
4. Cut off crusts.
5. Can cut into 3 finger sandwiches if serving at a pot-luck.
