Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. (James 1:17)

Cucumber Sandwiches

1 large cucumber

1 (3-ounce) package cream cheese, softened

2 to 3 t. prepared horseradish

½ t. salt

¼ t. of onion powder

Butter, softened

Fresh white or whole wheat bread, crusts trimmed

Peel the cucumber, seed and chop finely. Set aside. Mix together the cream cheese, horseradish, salt and onion powder; fold in chopped cucumber. Spread cucumber filling onto buttered bread and top with another buttered slice of bread. Cut on the diagonal two ways to form 4 triangle-shaped sandwiches. Or, if desired, use cookie cutters to cut-out sandwich shapes. Makes about 2 cups sandwich filling.
