Directions
Lemon Cucumber Tea Sandwiches With Minty Mayonnaise (Or Hummus), I replaced standard cucumbers with lemon cucumbers from our garden! Adapted from ichef com with a nod and hat doff to another site (grouprecipes com) for the hummus idea If you dislike mint, try another fresh herb: basil is always an excellent choice, lovage, salad burnet or good ol’ parsley For a more substantial meal, add greens-arugula, baby spinach, loose leaf lettuce; perhaps some finely minced shallots, heirloom toms, ad infinitum , Made for ZWT-8 because I had made my hummus ( Recipe #483527 ) for another ZWT recipe & was glad to find a 2nd tasty-looking option for its use That said, it’s clear I took the hummus vs mayo route w/your recipe & it worked very well The hummus uses red pesto & hence has a decidedly tomato flavour that complimented the cucumber & its crispness We were very happy w/the outcome & this is certainly 1 of the best & easiest ways to solve the prob of what to serve unexpected guests Thx for posting this recipe for us
