Recipe Courtesy of Paula DeenServings: 20 to 24 whole sandwiches
Prep Time: 15 min
Difficulty: Easy
1 24-ounce loaf sliced white bread
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
1 16-ounce jar pickled okra
1 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
Remove crusts from bread. With a rolling pin, roll slices very thin. Coat each slice with cream cheese and place an okra spear in center; roll up. Spread a light coat of cream cheese on each rolled-up sandwich (I like to use my fingers to spread the cream cheese). Roll sandwich in finely chopped parsley. Cut in half, if desired.

On the pickled okra sandwiches my familys variation is: We use flour tortillas, slightly warmed so you can roll easier, we add some garlic to the cream cheese and spread onto shells, line the dried pickled okra then we roll it up. You can cut them into for a sandwich or cut into rounds to use as an appetizer. Either way they go fast.

Very good recipe. Made it for a pot-luck luncheon at work (because the boss likes pickled Okra) and it went over pretty well.

These were fantastic. Once you taste one, you'll want to have many more.

5 brought this to a pot luck. Everyone loved it, even those who don't like okra, and it looked so pretty.
