A veggie hummus sandwich is a quick, nutritious, and delicious way to enjoy a plant-based meal. This recipe combines the creamy texture of hummus with the crunch of fresh peppers, the tang of onions, and the earthy taste of spinach. Perfect for lunch or a light dinner, it's both satisfying and easy to make.

Ingredients:

2 slices whole-wheat bread
54g
2 tbsp hummus
30g
3 oz red peppers
90g
1/4 cup onion
30g
1/2 cup spinach
16g

Instructions:

1. Prep the Vegetables:
- Peppers: Thinly slice 3 oz of yellow or green peppers.
- Onion: Thinly slice 1/4 cup of onion.
- Spinach: Ensure the spinach is clean and dry. If the leaves are large, consider tearing them into smaller pieces.
2. Toast the Bread (Optional):
- If you prefer a crunchier sandwich, lightly toast the 2 slices of whole-wheat bread until they're golden brown.
3. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Spread 1 tablespoon of hummus evenly on one slice of the whole-wheat bread.
- Arrange the sliced yellow or green peppers evenly over the hummus layer.
- Add the thinly sliced onion on top of the peppers.
- Spread the spinach leaves over the onions, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Spread the remaining 1 tablespoon of hummus on the second slice of whole-wheat bread.
4. Combine and Serve:
- Place the second slice of bread, hummus side down, on top of the spinach layer to complete the sandwich.
- Press down lightly to help the ingredients stick together.
- Slice the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately.

Tips:

- Use fresh, whole-wheat bread for the best texture and nutrients.

- You can lightly toast the bread for added crunch and depth of flavor.

- If you prefer a milder onion flavor, use red onions or shallots instead of regular onions.

- Adding a few slices of avocado or some sliced cucumbers can enhance the sandwich's taste and nutritional value.

- For a spicier kick, consider adding a few slices of jalapeño or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the sandwich.

With just a few fresh ingredients, you can easily create a tasty and healthy veggie hummus sandwich. This simple recipe provides a delightful mix of textures and flavors that will leave you feeling full and energized. Enjoy your meal knowing it’s packed with nutrients and wholesome goodness!
