Tea-Time Tomato sandwich

Tomato Sandwiches are my latest favourite. They are creamy, tangy and compliments tea very well. It is made using tomatoes, onion, cheese and mayonnaise.

In Singapore it is school holidays this week, so I took the opportunity and invited my friends over for tea this week. By this we got to catch up with each other and kids also had some company as they were missing being with their school friends.

I am not a religious tea drinker, but when I drink I do it complete justice. I would enjoy it to the last sip and I make sure I have something to munch along with it. I was not in the mood of making something deep fired snack this time like Cottage cheese croquet.

I am a Sandwich lover as most of you would be knowing, I have a lots of them on my blog like Bombay Sandwich, Vegetable Sandwich, Mac and Cheese Sandwich, Hummus Sandwich and many more. I decided to serve few variety of sandwiches along with tea. I ended up making Cucumber sandwich, Tomato Sandwich and Peanut Jam sandwich.
