Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the cucumber, tomato, avocado, and spinach under cold water. Slice the cucumber and tomato into thin rounds. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh, then slice it. Peel and slice the red onion thinly.

  2. 2

    Toast the Bread (Optional)

    If desired, toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 3

    Spread the Hummus

    Take two slices of the toasted or fresh whole grain bread. Spread approximately 1/2 cup of hummus evenly on each slice.

  2. 4

    Layer the Vegetables

    On one slice of bread, layer the cucumber, tomato, avocado, spinach, and red onion slices in that order. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 5

    Drizzle with Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar

    Drizzle the olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the vegetable layers for added flavor.

  4. 6

    Top and Serve

    Place the second slice of bread, hummus side down, on top of the vegetables. Press down gently, cut the sandwich in half if desired, and serve immediately.
