When I was in high school, there was a bakery near the school that sold cucumber *only* sandwiches. They were cheap, so I bought them with my allowance. They were perfectly seasoned with salt, and delicious, and have remained in my memories.I thought back to those sandwiches, used my favorite yogurt sauce, and made my own variation.To prevent the sandwiches from becoming watery, be sure to squeeze out the salt-massaged cucumbers very well to remove excess moisture.

My friend and I have always loved cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches. We needed something new, so we found a recipe from one of my mom's cookbooks.The dill weed is optional; it adds a good flavor, but it is super flavorful without it, too.I like to make a double batch of this and make them for my work lunches.Whipped cream cheese is easier to blend with the other ingredients. But I take my cream cheese brick out and let it soften while I get everything else together.

I wanted to eat sandwiches made with Honey Mustard. I had crab sticks and cucumber in the refrigerator so I made the sandwiches.Pat dry the cucumber well, otherwise the sandwich will become soggy. Use as much honey mustard as you like.Water comes out of cucumber so these sandwiches may not be good as a packed lunch, so it's better if you eat them immediately. Recipe by Kikka mama

I'm proud of this recipe, which my mother often used to make.The key is to remove excess moisture from the cucumber. You can make this with thinly sliced sandwich bread or thicker slices. It's also tasty if you toast it lightly when it's done. Recipe by NumaYuu

By chopping up the ingredients, I changed the texture of my daily sandwiches!Rub salt into the cucumber to remove excess water.If you like mustard, try adding a generous amount of it! Recipe by Kyasarintei

This is a variation on a chicken salad sandwich using slices of meat and cucumber instead of chopping them up. Very crisp & refreshing!

If I have tomatoes, I almost always make this sandwich.Moisture will seep out, so eat it soon after making it. Recipe by Gubigubipuha-

This is the sandwich my mother used to make when she worked at a kissaten. It's a comforting taste that I've loved since I was a child.For a grown-up taste, try using karashi-mayonnaise (mayonnaise mixed with Japanese mustard) instead of regular mayonnaise. Recipe by Nanaiku

Eating these always make me nostalgic for school lunches. It's an easy, relatively simple sandwich but I have never seen this anywhere else so I posted this recipe. My sister, who went to the same school, says 'I don't remember this.' I wonder why. A lot of people seem to like it anyway!The cucumber is prepared with salt, so don't use too much mayonnaise. When I was an elementary school student, I used to think that the mustard in mine was too strong so you might not need any mustard for your children's sandwiches. I think these are easier to eat than regular egg and sliced cucumber sandwiches. For 1 serving. Recipe by 明日見

This is a great low carb meal

They sell these sandwiches at a store at our local train station. I wanted to be able to eat as many of them as I like, so I tried making them myself. I like the fact that they're looks so colorful.The foundation of this sandwich is the egg and nanohana. After that, you can add and combination of ham, lettuce, tomato, shrimp or bacon.The sandwiches will have a nicer texture if you chill them in the fridge for a while, as the bread will absorb some of the filling.If you make the sandwiches at night, wrap up in plastic and chill in the refrigerator, then cut them and eat in the morning they will be really moist and delicious.

Fried green tomatoes is a classic movie. My husband first introduced me to it. I think his mom had made him watch it when he was younger and now is a nostalgic memory. This is a take on the recipe that I have made into a lunch for myself on numerous occasions. #heirloom
