Time 10m

Yield 2 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 slices whole grain bread (can use whole grain crackers, if desired)
softened butter, for spreading
1 tablespoon fresh salad burnet, leaves (read *Note)
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Spread the butter on each slice of bread.
  • *Note: due to salad burnet's delicate nature, it is not necessary or really possible to mince the leaves. Add them whole to the cream cheese.

  • Spread the cream cheese mixture on two slices of bread. Place other slices on top and cut sandwiches in half or quarters.
