Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 medium cucumber
2 -3 green onions
8 ounces cream cheese
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

Peel the cucumber and cut in chunks. If it's got a lot of big seeds, scoop some out and discard. Put it in a food processor and chop fine. If it's really moist, or you didn't seed it, then you may want to squeeze off some of the excess juice.
Put the onion in the processor and chop. Add the rest of the ingredients. Process, scrape down the sides, and process again until smooth.
I like it best on soft, white bread. But it's also great on crackers.

Tips:

Use the freshest cucumbers possible for the best flavor and texture.
Peel the cucumbers before slicing them to remove the bitter skin.
If you don't have time to chill the cucumber slices in ice water, you can skip this step. However, chilling the cucumbers will help to make the spread more refreshing.
Use a food processor or blender to finely chop the cucumbers. This will help to create a smooth and creamy spread.
If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can grate the cucumbers on a box grater.
Add your favorite herbs and spices to the cucumber spread to taste. Some popular options include dill, parsley, chives, salt, and pepper.
Use the cucumber spread as a sandwich spread, dip, or condiment.

Conclusion:

Cucumber sandwich spread is a delicious and refreshing way to enjoy cucumbers. It is easy to make and can be used in a variety of ways. Whether you are looking for a light and healthy lunch or a quick and easy snack, cucumber sandwich spread is a great option. So next time you have some cucumbers on hand, be sure to give this recipe a try!
