Pineapple Cheese Sandwich without Bread

Back in India...You can find numerous street stalls , each having its own unique cuisine and flavor.....I just picked this one from them

But Note: This is would not be very appropriate for someone who prays for not having a sweet tooth


So You would require

 4 Cheese slices
[ Alternatives: You can use Tofu / Cottage cheese slices / cubes]
1Tbsp Pineapple Jam
4 thin slices Cucumbers
2 slices Tomato
1 slice Tinned pineapple
Salt and Pepper

Places 2 cheese slices together ( if you think you have not got the desired thickness you can also place 3 cheese slices together)
Spread in the jam and add in cucumber and tomato
Place a pineapple slice and sprinkle it with salt and pepper
Cover it with another 2 cheese slices and serve

Note: This can also serve as a cocktail snack.....for which you need not cover it with another cheese / tofu / cottage cheese cube ....Toothpick it so that it remains together.....You can replace the jam with an olive....Works great
