  • 2 (8-oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons bacon, in pieces, for garnish (optional)

In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese and mayonnaise. Split into 4 approximately 4 oz portions, and put into separate bowls.

Combine pineapple and 4-ounces cream cheese mixture and set aside. Combine green olives and 4 oz cream cheese mixture and set aside. Combine cucumbers and 4 oz cream cheese mixture and set aside. Combine pecans and 4 oz cream cheese mixture and set aside.

To assemble sandwiches, spread the fillings on top of white bread slices and cover with wheat bread slices.

Cut each sandwich into triangles, squares or circles. Arrange on a large platter by sandwich filling.

In gold ink, write each sandwich filling on a small card, attach it to a toothpick and place it in the center of each pile of sandwiches, identifying the filling.
