Time 30m

Yield 32 finger sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 17

One 8-ounce container whipped cream cheese
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onions
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup mayonnaise, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons minced shallots
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
6 hard-boiled large eggs, peeled and chopped
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 loaf white bread (about 16 slices)
One 6-ounce package thinly sliced smoked salmon
1/2 lemon
1 Persian cucumber, sliced into 16 rounds about 1/4-inch thick

Steps:

For the onion cream cheese: Stir together the cream cheese, chives, green onions and garlic powder in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
For the egg and bacon salad: Stir together the mayonnaise, parsley, shallots, mustard, paprika, eggs and bacon in a medium bowl. Add more mayonnaise if you prefer a creamier egg salad. Season with salt and pepper.
For the sandwiches: Place 4 of the bread slices on a cutting board and spread each with about 3 tablespoons of the onion cream cheese in an even layer on one side. Top with a single layer of smoked salmon, squeeze some lemon juice over the salmon and then cover with a second slice of bread to form 4 sandwiches. Cut the crusts off. Slice each sandwich in half crosswise and then cut each half diagonally to create 4 triangle-shaped finger sandwiches. Place a cucumber round on top of each sandwich and arrange on a platter.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (16 ounce) rye cocktail bread, loaf
1/2 cup hellmans light mayonnaise
2 large cucumbers (do not peel)
2 tablespoons Lawry's Seasoned Salt (or your favorite brand)
1 tablespoon black pepper

Steps:

Thinly slice the cucumbers approximately 1/8 inch thick or less. I usually use the larger slices first, to completely cover the bread.
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on each slice of rye bread. Top with a slice of cucumber.
Lightly sprinkle each one with seasoned salt (be careful not to overdo it or they will be too salty), then just a dash of black pepper.
May be eaten immediately if you prefer, however best if allowed to chill in the refrigerator before serving.
