Asian (hoisin sauce) and Mexican (jalapeño) combine in this bright summer salad, which takes advantage of a seasonal favorite, watermelon and the ever-reliable cucumber. Flat-leaf parsley adds specks of deep green, and pistachios add crunch.

WATERMELON AND CUCUMBER SALAD



Watermelon and Cucumber Salad image

I have been on a watermelon kick lately so when I saw this in a weight loss magazine I knew it was one I wanted to try. Each 1 cup serving is 1 WW point and this is also a core recipe. The original recipe calls for seedless cucumbers. I'm not someone who is bothered by cucumber seeds in things but if you are, use a seedless kind. Cook time is stand time.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 20 sandwiches, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 (8 ounce) packages reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
1 (1 ounce) packet hidden valley ranch dressing mix
4 cucumbers (Really depends on how thick you want your slices)
2 loaves French baguettes

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese and ranch dressing mix packet. Stir until well-blended.
  • Slice cucumbers into relatively thin slices (I cut mine to approximately 1/4").
  • Slice baguette into medium slices (mine were about 1/2"). For a "daintier" sandwich, trim off crusts.
  • Spread cream cheese mixture onto one slice of bread. (I prefer a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture!).
  • Place 4-5 cucumber slices on top of cream cheese.
  • Spread cream cheese mixture onto a second piece of bread and place the bread on top of the cucumbers, cream cheese side down.
  • Repeat!
  • NOTE: I recently made this recipe for a bridal shower bruch I hosted. I knew the morning of the shower would be crazy, so I sliced the cucumbers and mixed up the cream cheese spread the night before. It tasted great and made things so much easier on the morning of the shower!
