Olive-Cucumber Finger Sandwiches
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min. + standing
YIELD: 3 dozen.
Along with a refreshing beverage, I served these attractive hors d'oeuvres to guests at my Garden Party. The crisp cucumbers on these easy-to-fix finger sandwiches get their zip from being marinated for a short time.
