Enjoy these cute tea sandwiches or Cuties. Serve them with something cool on warmer days, or with a cup of fresh ginger tea on cooler evenings, either way, its a great snack bite! I’ sure they’ll be a hit with yours too. The highlight of the recipe, if I can call it a recipe because there’s not much to do really than just assemble these, is the herbed cream cheese.

Ingredients

1 Mini cucumber, sliced into rounds
8 Small cherry tomatoes
1 tsp. Freshly chopped mint leaves
1 tsp. Freshly chopped parsley
1 tbsp. Freshly chopped spring onion
4 tbsp. Cream cheese
2 tbsp. Homemade or store-bough pesto sauce
4 slices White or wheat sandwich bread

Method

01

Layer and bread slices and take a paring knife then cut off the edges of all 4 slices.
02

In one small bowl, mix the cream cheese and beat it until soft and spreadable. Mix the chopped onions, parsley and mint leaves in it and set aside. In another small bowl, make the pesto and stir it to make it smooth.
03

Take 2 slices for each sandwich, layer one of them with cream cheese mixture and the other with pesto sauce. Do the same for the other 2 slices. Stack them together and cut from the middle to make 4 mini sandwiches.
04

Take 2 slices of cucumber and place it between each mini sandwich. Prick a toothpick in the middle, and deck it on the top with half of a cherry tomato, as shown in the picture. Repeat for all remaining sandwiches.
05

Serve these with some fresh Lemonade or Juice on the side as a simple Spring Tea Time Snack!
