WeightWatchers Cucumber Sandwiches with Smoked Salmon Cream Recipe

The smoked salmon gives this snack a more intense, spicier flavor than the classic English cucumber sandwiches. In addition, the salmon increases the health benefits by an extra dose of vitamin D. It promotes the absorption and processing of calcium and is essential for the formation of bones, teeth and cartilage.

You can also sprinkle the sandwich cream with some garden cress for an even more pronounced flavor and an increase in vitamin C and calcium.
