15 Reviews of Veggies Dream Cucumber Sandwich

From: Gladys58

On Mar 4, 2003

WOW!! This is one yummy sandwich. Has a filling that is chock full of healthy, fresh vegetables. Very upscale. Definitely a few steps up from PB&J My husband, who thinks you have to have meat with every meal enjoyed it. The oil and vinegar adds zest. Thanks

    This was a great sandwich to take to school, and very healthy! I used regular bread which I wouldn't recommend (the cream cheese wouldn't spread and the bread got soggy) but the sandwich was still great! Tasted just like one you would order at Subway!

    This was very good. My daughter and I make veggie sandwiches like this all the time and we love them. Thank you for sharing this keeper recipe.

    A really great sandwich - thanks! I missed out the alfalfa as I'm not a fan, and used a granary roll and low fat cream cheese. yum!

    I could eat one of these everyday! I didn't use the sprouts or avocado this time, but did incorporate sun-dried tomatoes. I also added some sun-dried tomatoes and chopped green onions to the cream cheese spread. This was a big hit!

    I make a variation of this sandwich every summer when I've got garden-fresh tomatoes and cukes. I've never tried it with the sprouts and peppers, but plan to now. I was planning to type my recipe in, but now I don't hae to!

    I've been making variations on this for years ~ great stuff! (Dh never has tried it...he just chalks it up to having married a hippie-granola-mountain chick, lol!) I especially like it on a lightly toasted bagel; adds a great chewy texture and makes it very filling. I don't always use oil/vinegar, some days I prefer a lighter flavor, but the great thing about this recipe is all the room for different options. Nothing quite beats that basic cream cheese-avacado-sprout combo, though! :o)

    I left out the oil, sprouts, and peppers and this was still yummy. I was worried this would leave me hungry, but it didn't. I love the velvety texture of the avocado.

    Oh very nice. It's been a long time since I've had a veggie sandwich and this was wonderful. Loved the olive oil and red wine vinegar combo on this sandwich. I apparently didn't read step 5 and it was on top with the lettuce and the first bite, all of them shot out of the sandwich. That was okay, just put them back in where they belonged and we got along fine afterwards. Very good.

    I've been eating this every day for awhile now. I love it. Definately use a nice "hard bread", so that it doesn't get soggy. I use a county loaf. I did a couple changes to suit my taste... I used baby spinach instead of lettuce and no peppers or oil. I mash the avacado into the cream cheese. My husband added red onion to his.
