👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling:
    In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard. Mix until smooth and creamy.

  2. Add meat and veggies:
    Fold in chopped cooked meat and green onions or chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. Assemble sandwiches:
    Spoon a small amount of the filling onto a Ritz cracker. Top with another cracker to create a sandwich. Press gently.

  4. Optional toppings:
    Garnish each sandwich with a slice of pickle, olive, pimento, or cherry tomato for added flavor and presentation.

  5. Chill and serve:
    Refrigerate sandwiches for at least 15–20 minutes before serving. This helps them firm up and enhances the flavors.
