Step 1

Make the vegan cream cheese from scratch or take the store-bought vegan cream cheese out of the fridge so it can soften slightly.

Step 2

Peel and slice the cucumber as you wish (thin slices are better) and then, place them on a clean towel. Cover them with a second towel and gently press and pat dry the slices to help absorb the extra moisture. Set aside.

Step 3

Clean and chop the dill and chives. Make sure to remove extra moisture.

Step 4

Prepare the cream cheese mixture: in a medium bowl, combine the 1 cup of cream cheese with lemon juice, chives, dill and add salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 5

Spread some cream cheese on two slices of bread and then, lay some cucumber slices on one of them (add one or two layers of cucumber). Then, sprinkle some extra salt and pepper over the cucumber and close the sandwich with the second slice of bread.

Step 6

Remove the crusts on the sandwiches if you wish and then, slice the sandwich in squares or triangles. Enjoy!
