Sardines, Anyone?

This was found in Grandma's recipe box as a label that was apparently saved from the top of a sardine can. The first recipe is for a snack  "Rye Bread Savories".  This scrap of paper jumped out of the box by itself, which is why it included here now.  (Not because I like sardines, for sure!  Apparently Grandma did!). The second is for a salad.  Yummo!

Rye Bread Savories
On buttered rye bread place a piece of crisp lettuce and tope with an assortment of the following: KING OSCAR sardines, hard boiled eggs, mayonnaise, chives, tomatoes. A delicious snack for a light lunch or suppertime.

2 peeled tomatoes                                                           1/3 unpeeled cucumber, sliced
