½ teaspoon of ground black pepper

Pinch of salt

10-12 slices of white or wheat bread, crusts removed

1. Peel the cucumber and slice thinly. Lay the slices on paper towels and lightly salt. Allow to sit for 15-30 minutes to remove moisture. Dry with clean paper towels.

2. Blend the cream cheese in a medium-sized bowl until it becomes smooth, then incorporate the mayo and stir once more until smooth.

3. Add the garlic powder, dill, chives, pepper and salt and stir together. Adjust the salt to taste.

4. Apply the cream cheese spread evenly on two slices of bread. Next, arrange 6-9 slices of cucumber on the bottom half. Finally, place the top slice of bread.

5. Continue the process with the remaining bread, cucumbers and cream cheese spread.

6. Using a sharp knife, cut each sandwich into quarters.

7. Serve right away and enjoy!
