I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cucumber sandwiches turned out really dry. I think I might have used too much bread.

These cucumber sandwiches are a great way to use up leftover hard-boiled eggs. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

The sandwiches were a bit too messy to eat. I think I'll try making them with smaller pieces of cucumber next time.

I'm not a big fan of egg salad, but these sandwiches were surprisingly good! The mint really adds a nice touch.

These sandwiches were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some salt and pepper next time.
