With this being the time of year for Bridal showers, all the women involved with our Bridal shower decided to make finger sandwiches. To make it easier, everyone shared in making the food and each of us had something else to do as well as make the sandwiches also. It really was easy and we had a fun time getting everything together. And we all got together to make the sandwiches. It amazes me how you can get these made when you are laughing so hard!

We bought our bread from a Bakery. We also had it tinted to match the colors, yea we are a different bunch! But fun we did have!

Next we cut off the crust, we also used fancy toothpicks stuck in the sandwiches. (Not all of them just here and there)

Now there are different spreads you can use. So everyone found one they wanted to make.

Seafood Filling:

  • 1- 6 1/2 oz. shrimp, tuna or crab (in cans)
  • 2 Tbsp. chopped dill pickles
  • 2 Tbsp. mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 1/2 tsp. lemon juice
In small bowl combine all filling ingredients. Mix well and then put your sandwiches together and cut into quarters.

I made the shrimp salad and it was delicious. Makes 1 cup, I also doubled it

Chicken Salad Filling:

3/4 finely chopped cooked chicken*
  • 2 Tbsp mayo or salad dressing
  • 2 Tbsp. pimento (optional)**
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped celery.
  • Salt and Pepper
*Depending on how much you want to make depends on how much chicken you will need, say one or two chicken breasts. 1-5 oz. can of chicken can be substituted. They can all be made the night before, however do not put sandwiches together the night before. **you can use 1-2 tsp pickle relish.We used this and it was really good!

In small bowl, combine ingredients, mix well. You can make the night before.

Ham Salad Sandwiches

  • 8 oz. cooked ground ham, we just cut ours into small pieces
  • 2 Tbsp. mayo or salad dressing
  • 1-2 tsp. pickle relish
In small bowl combine mix well. May also be chilled.

Egg Salad Filling

  • 2 hard cooked eggs, chopped.
  • 1 tsp. pimento (optional)
  • 1 tsp. celery
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
Mix together, chill. This one only makes 3/4 cup

Pineapple Cheese Filling

  • 1 -3 oz pkg cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup drained crushed pineapple
Mix together well and can chill overnight. I have to tell you, this one was also delicous!

Creamy Pimento Spread

  • 8 oz. cream cheese softened
  • 2 Tbsp. milk or half and half
  • 1/8 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 oz. (1/2 cup) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 Tbsp. chopped pimento
In a small bowl, combine first 3 ingredients. Beat until light and fluffy. Add cheese and pimiento, mix well. Chill. Makes 1 1/2 cups

Variations

You can also create others from these recipes.

To 1-3 oz. package of softened cream cheese, add any of these to make sandwiches:

  • 1-2 Tbsp. chopped green peppers
  • 1-2 Tbsp. bacon fried, crisp, drained and crumbled
  • 2 oz. (1/2 cup) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1-2 Tbsp. chopped pimento
  • 1-2 Tbsp. chopped green olives

Keep chilled also.

I really hope someone tries these, they are really good. As usual I had to munch my way through, they are so good and easy!

Good Luck to whoever the shower is for. Enjoy!

PS - Bridge playing women like them also.

Those all sound so good.
We also do cream cheese mixed with diced dried fruit.
And equal parts sour cream & cream cheese in the blender with marinated mushrooms & artichoke hearts.
