"Good but needed more salt and pepper for flavor. The recipe made way more filling than need for the amount of bread...." See more"

"In all, the flavor in this recipe is correct, but the execution is terrible. Butter will not ever blend with cucumber. Instead, mix the mayo with the cucumber and spread the butter on the bread. ..." See more I also like it with cucumber slices instead of chopped."

"Everything was good except it seemed like there was way too many Chives, it was overpowering, so for those people who don't like Chives/Onions, you might want to use less. Otherwise is was pretty good..." See more."
