Assemble a fun sandwich on a stick—it’s a guaranteed way to get them eating their lunch! Include a creamy dip like 3 Onion or Lemon Dilly.

Ingredients

  • 1⁄4 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tsp CCB Dip Mix or Creamy Ranch Dip Mix
  • 4 slices bread
  • 1⁄2 English cucumber
  • 2 oz (60 g) cheddar cheese
  • 8 slices deli meat, your choice
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes

Preparation

  1. In a small bowl, combine softened cream cheese and dip mix. Spread over two of the bread slices and top each slice with another slice to make a sandwich. Slice each sandwich into 1" cubes.
  2. Slice cucumber into rounds. Cut cheese into 1⁄2" cubes; you should have about 1⁄2 cup. Fold deli meat into quarters.
  3. Thread sandwich cubes, cucumber rounds, cheese cubes, folded deli meat, and tomatoes evenly between eight small wooden skewers.
