Cucumber sandwiches
I needed something different, something light… cucumber sandwiches.
They really hit the spot! I was at the grocery store and picked up the cucumber for 1.00, the soft white bread for 1.00, and I had the Philly whipped cream cheese. The whipped kind works best for the light weight white bread. Here’s how I made em:
Blot dry the cukes after you slice them in a food processor, especially if they’ve been in the fridge a few hours. It’ll help so the sandwich doesn’t get soggy. I know some people put dill on them, thats good too, but I like the celery seed with salt.
Real Whip Cream
There is so much you can do with real whip cream. I combined a few things to make my whip cream be just right. whipping cream heavy whip cream a little soft spread cream cheese unflavored gelatin a little powdered sugar, but not much Last night I made a small strawberry jello and only put in the 1 cup of boiling water, omitting the other 1 cup of cold water.
Mixed in some big strawberries I picked this last summer, and this morning I made the cream to put on top of it. Real whip cream is a luxury. I think that’s why many women like the Starbuck drinks. The whip cream on top of the drink under the plastic bubble lid is a big treat. Every morning I put it in my coffee and I’ve been combining whip cream with the heavy whip cream. How do you like your whip cream?
Below is Lucerene brand, but yesterday I made the mistake of buying Darigold brand, which does have the growth hormone in it. Years ago I remember the cows coming through the parlor to get their Growth hormone shot. Prior to that particular farm, we were at a fairy farm that did not give the shot. I always look at the box and make sure it sys : no growth hormone.
