RECIPES

Ingredients:

5 tbsp. butter, softened, divided

4 slices bread

2 c. shredded cheddar

Directions:

Spread 1 tablespoon butter on one side of each slice of bread. With butter side down, top each slice of bread with about ½ cup cheddar.

In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add two slices of bread, butter side down. Cook until bread is golden and cheese is starting to melt, about 2 minutes. Flip one piece of bread on top of the other and continue to cook until cheese is melty, about 30 seconds more.

Repeat for the second sandwich, wiping skillet clean if necessary.

Cucumber triple-deckers

Ingredients:

1 – 2 cucumbers, thinly sliced

1 cup soft cheese

½ small bunch mint, finely chopped

1 tomato sliced

4-5 olives, sliced

9 thin slices bread

Salt to taste

Pepper to taste

Directions:

Lay the cucumber slices on kitchen paper to dry. Whizz the cheese and mint with salt and pepper in a small food processor or with a hand blender. Stir in the olives, then spread the cheese mixture over 6 slices of bread. Reserve 12 slices of cucumber, and arrange the rest over the cheese. Top up with sliced tomatoes.

Layer up 2 slices of cucumber and tomato topped bread, then top with a plain slice. Repeat this twice more. Use a good knife to trim the crusts off the tripledeckers, then cut into triangles or four squares. Top each mini sandwich with another cucumber slice. Sprinkle with the remaining olives to serve.
