Bacon Cucumber And Cream Cheese Sammies Recipe

These are the ULTIMATE party sandwiches! Simple, ridiculously yummy, and budget-friendly, they're my most requested party food. This recipe easily scales – I use 2 loaves of pumpernickel for a crowd, but it's perfect for a small picnic or get-together, too. Crisp bacon, cool cucumber, and creamy cream cheese perfectly complement the hearty pumpernickel. Prep the bacon the night before to save time – it's worth it! Customize the seasoning to your liking for a truly unique flavor experience.
