Cucumber Sandwich Bites!

Cucumber Sandwich BitesI love tiny food! So I went looking for something I could do with a can of tuna fish and some seedless English cucumbers! And you know the first place I looked? You guessed it...Pinterest!

I loved the idea of using cucumbers instead of bread for sandwiches! The cucumbers added a nice fresh taste to the tuna salad. I topped these with baby spinach leaves and served the sandwich bites 2 ways!

My family thought it was cute and gobbled up a bunch of these as a snack! This is my recipe for the tuna salad...
