Radish Sandwiches

Radish Sandwiches

Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• 8 radishes, trimmed
• 6 ounces cream cheese (I used low fat)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (I used Smart Beat Spread)
• 1 tablespoon parsley, without stems
• 1 teaspoon chives, snipped
• fresh lemon juice
• salt
• ground black pepper
• 6 -8 slices pumpernickel bread

Directions

• 1 For the filling, finely chop the radishes in the food processor (or hand grater). Place in a large sieve or colander. Press with paper towels to drain and squeeze out any excess liquid.
• 2 Cream the cream cheese and butter together until fluffy (I used the food processor); add drained chopped radishes, parsley, chives, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, and cream again.
• 3 Cut crusts from bread and cut into small squares or rounds. Spread with filling, and garnish with sliced or whole radishes coated with coarse salt.
• 4 Chill thoroughly before serving.
