This Ultimate Veggie Sandwich is loaded with crisp vegetables, creamy hummus and avocado, and hearty bread for a fresh and satisfying meal. It’s quick to assemble, endlessly customizable, and perfect for lunch or a light dinner.

Ingredients

  • 2 slices whole grain or sourdough bread
  • 2 tablespoons hummus
  • 1 tablespoon mashed avocado
  • 2 lettuce leaves
  • 2 slices tomato
  • 4 slices cucumber
  • 2–3 thin slices red onion
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup alfalfa sprouts or microgreens
  • 2 slices cheddar, provolone, or Swiss cheese (optional)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Spread the hummus evenly over one slice of bread.
  2. Spread the mashed avocado over the second slice of bread.
  3. Season both spreads lightly with salt and black pepper.
  4. Layer the lettuce on the hummus-covered slice.
  5. Add the tomato, cucumber, red onion, shredded carrots, and sprouts.
  6. Add the cheese if using.
  7. Top with the second slice of bread and gently press together.
  8. Slice the sandwich in half and serve immediately with chips, fruit, or a simple salad.

Notes

  • Use sliced avocado instead of mashed avocado for extra texture.
  • Swap hummus for pesto or another favorite spread.
  • Add roasted red peppers, zucchini, or eggplant for more flavor.
  • For a vegan version, omit the cheese or use dairy-free cheese.
  • Assemble just before serving to keep the bread from becoming soggy.
