This easy vegetarian cucumber sandwich draws flavor inspiration from elote, the Mexican street corn dish.

Instead of corn, we flavor cucumber slices with cotija cheese, lime and cilantro for a tasty filling.

Arugula adds a peppery flavor, but any tender greens will work well here.

Spread the mixture evenly on both halves of sandwich thin.

Top one half with cucumber slices and arugula (or mixed salad greens).

Place the other half on top.

Cut the sandwich in half and serve.
