Lavender Tea Sandwiches
Decorate each sandwich with lavender flower petals and serve.

1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded and finely chopped
8 ounces cream cheese room temperature (Tofutti brand is delicious and
vegan!)
3/4 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup finely chopped chives or scallions thinly sliced
Cracked wheat or white bread, crusts removed
Lots of edible lavender blossoms rinsed and patted dry
(may also add blossoms from these flowers for added color and
variety ---nasturtium, chive, borage, calendula petals, & roses)

DIRECTIONS:

Squeeze chopped cucumber in a kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as
possible; set aside. Blend together the cream cheese, seasonings and chives
or scallion. Add cucumber and combine well but do not overmix. Spread on
bread and cut into finger-sized open sandwiches.

To serve: decorate the tops of the sandwiches with petals of lavender and
accent with various other edible flowers, combining colors and shapes to
suit your palate and your fancy.
