ingredients
1 cup whipped cream cheese 1/2 bunch chives 1/2 English cucumber 1/2 bunch watercress 12 slices white sandwich bread
directions
Mince chives and mix with cream cheese. Divide and spread evenly on one side of each slice of bread. Slice cucumber into paper thin slices.
Divide among half of the cheese layered slices of bread and lay out in single layer.
Wash water cress, pat dry and cut into two inch pieces.
Divide watercress and layer on the cucumber slice lined bread. Top with remaining slices of cheese lined bread. With a sharp serrated knife trim crusts off each sandwich. Cut in half diagonally.
What bread do you recommend with this? I used cocktail rye but that felt a little too coarse and dense for what I think is supposed to be a very light sandwich. Maybe I'm wrong. The combination of ingredients is very simple but tasty. Had a little trouble finding watercress but the second store I went to had it.

Don't forget the bread when you go to the store. It was very good though.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
