Bacon and Cheddar Tea Sandwiches

While this recipe calls for country white bread, you can use any sandwich bread you like. For a nice color contrast, try pumpernickel or rye.

• 1 1/2  cups  (6 ounces) shredded reduced-fat extrasharp cheddar cheese
• 5  tablespoons  block-style fat-free cream cheese, softened
• 5  tablespoons  thinly sliced green onions
• 3 1/2  tablespoons  fat-free mayonnaise
• 1 1/4  teaspoons  hot sauce
• 3  bacon slices, cooked and crumbled
• 12  (1-ounce) slices country white bread, crusts removed

Preparation

Combine all ingredients except the bread, stirring well.

Spread 3 tablespoons cheese mixture on each of 6 bread slices; top with remaining bread slices. Cut each sandwich in half diagonally; cut each half diagonally again to form 4 wedges.
