There is nothing quite like a fresh veggie sandwich when you want a light meal that actually keeps you satisfied. It is one of my favorite go to lunches because it is so easy to put together on a busy day.

I love using a mix of crunchy cucumbers and creamy avocado to get the best texture. If you want to make this even better, try spreading a little bit of herb cream cheese on the bread before adding your veggies.

Ingredients

  • 2 slices of your favorite whole grain bread
  • 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 handful of fresh baby spinach
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • A pinch of salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Toast your bread slices until they are lightly golden and firm.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise or Greek yogurt with the lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Spread the dressing mixture onto one side of each bread slice.

  4. 4

    Layer the avocado slices onto one piece of bread and gently mash them with a fork.

  5. 5

    Add the cucumber, bell pepper, and spinach on top of the avocado.

  6. 6

    Place the second slice of bread on top, press down gently, and cut the sandwich in half to serve.

💡 Tips

To prevent the bread from getting soggy, pat your washed vegetables dry with a paper towel before assembling. You can store leftover avocado slices in an airtight container with a splash of lemon juice to keep them from turning brown.
