Fortunately, the ingredients are simple to assemble and you’re not fortunate enough to have a TJ’s in your neighborhood, you can still craft this Spa Party Cucumber Sandwich and serve it to your happy guests.

Spa Index Kitchen Notes
This recipe and the image shows the sandwich in longish pieces, perfect to serve a few to each person. However, for bite-sized appetizers, simply cut your cucumbers into traditional rounds, and then proceed with tidbits of salmon and a dollop of the cream cheese mixture.
