Served open-faced, the delicate crab meat and avocado topping taste delicious with crisp cucumber slices in these tea sandwiches. This is an elegant twist to the more traditional cucumber/cream cheese sandwich. Ingredients:
1 (6 1/2 ounce) can white crab meat, drained |
3 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1/4 teaspoon onion salt |
8 slices white bread, crusts removed |
1 -2 english seedless cucumber, sliced very thinly (one may be enough) |
1 avocado, halved and pitted |
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice (can use lemon juice) |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl combine drained crab meat, softened cream cheese,and onion salt; combine well.
2. Spread crab meat mixture over trimmed bread slices. Cut each bread slice diagonally into 4 triangles. Top each triangle with two cucumber slices.
3. In another small bowl, mash avocado with lime juice and salt. Place a dollop on top of cucumber slices. Sprinkle chives over tops and serve immediately.
