Benedictine Sandwiches - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 large cucumber
    1/4 medium onions (one piece of) or 1/4 medium onion (one piece of)
    8 ounces cream cheese, softened (lite is fine)
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    3 dashes Tabasco sauce
    1 drop green food coloring
    mayonnaise
    thin-sliced white bread (I just buy the store brand of thin-sliced bread)
Preparation
    Peel the cucumber, and remove the seeds.
    Place in a food processor and pulse about 5-6 times until minced. (I use my Pampered Chef handy chopper, chopping a few pieces at a time - about 15 chops).
    Transfer cucumber to a small mixing bowl.
    Chop onion in chopper or food processor, until finely minced. Add to cucumber.
    Add cream cheese, salt, food coloring and Tabasco, combining well.
    With a biscuit cutter, cut rounds out of bread slices.
    Spread a small amount of mayonnaise on bread rounds. Top with cucumber mixture, spreading to edges. Top with additional bread round.
    Garnish with parsley or other herbs as desired.
