  1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Cucumber Sandwiches:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened reduced-fat cream cheese, chopped fresh dill, chopped fresh chives, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth.
    • Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture onto each slice of cucumber. If desired, sandwich two slices of cucumber together with the cream cheese mixture in the middle. Alternatively, spread the cream cheese mixture onto whole grain bread or crackers.
  2. Make the Creamy Spinach Dip:
    • In a food processor or blender, combine the plain Greek yogurt, chopped fresh spinach, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  3. Serve and Enjoy:
    • Arrange the Cream Cheese Cucumber Sandwiches on a serving platter alongside the Creamy Spinach Dip. Garnish with additional chopped dill or chives if desired.
    • Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing crunch of cucumbers paired with the creamy richness of the spinach dip.
