1
Grate the cucumber, skin and all. Put the shreds in a paper towel and squeeze out the juice to make it as dry as possible.
2
Put the cream cheese in a bowl and beat it with a wooden spoon until smooth. Add the cucumber and scallion, and mix to combine. Tint with a drop or two of the food coloring to get a pale green hue.
3
Cut the crusts off whole wheat sandwich bread and spread with the filling. Cover with another slice of bread and slice the sandwiches into triangles.
