Cucumber and Cheese Sandwich

Cucumber and Cheese Sandwich

Everyday

A cucumber and cheese sandwich is a classic cold preparation featuring crisp cucumber slices layered with cheese between thinly sliced, often crustless bread. Traditionally associated with English afternoon tea, this light meal balances the fresh, watery crunch of cucumbers with creamy cheeses like cheddar or cream cheese. While lower in calories than meat-based sandwiches, its nutritional profile varies significantly based on cheese selection, with options ranging from protein-rich varieties to higher-fat spreads.
