Delicious. I cut the bread with a flower cookie cutter then spread it on each side and strawberry slices in the middle and put them together and then placed a slice of strawberry and a slice of cucumber on top and Secured them with a toothpick since the sandwich was a little thick. it was so cute. Also, use the smaller seedless or the English cucumbers. They aren't as wet and taste better. Also, I used the 1/3 less fat cream cheese and it still tasted delicious. Very good recipe. I'm keeping it.
