  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 12 slices of soft white or whole wheat sandwich bread, crusts removed

    • Instructions:

    1. In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, lemon juice, chopped dill, salt, and pepper until smooth and spreadable.
    2. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture on one side of each slice of bread.
    3. Layer cucumber slices evenly over half the slices, then top with the remaining bread, cream cheese side down.

    5. Chill for 15–30 min. before serving for best texture. Garnish with extra dill or cucumber ribbons if desired.
