Confetti Tea Sandwich Spread

Submitted by Sherrybeth

"This spread is an old standby for church "eatin' meetings" or showers. Fresh veggies give it the wonderful crunch! I've used every bread imaginable to make the sandwiches, including raisin bread. The flavors compliment most breads very well."

Awesome spread. VERY colorful for a tea party spread. Also excellent the second day topping crackers.
