Nothing like summer time with its abundance of tomatoes, cucumbers & avocados. One of the best ways of putting them together is in a sandwich that I deem my 'favorite'. This is a true classic! It's loaded with flavor and juiciness. I have come back to this sandwich many times over the years.
It's simplicity and deliciousness keep me coming back for more...
Favorite Summer Sandwich
Ingredients (serves two)
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cucumber, sliced
- sprouts or leafy greens (or both would be great too)
- hummus, to spread (veganiase would be great too)
- 4 slices your favorite bread (I used a sprouted whole wheat bread)
- mineral salt & cracked pepper, to taste
Start by toasting, or not, your bread. Add a nice layer of hummus to both inside pieces of bread. Then layer with the tomato, avocado, red onion, cucumber, sprouts/leafy greens and sprinkle with a little bit of mineral salt and cracked pepper.
Notes: If you find your hummus very thick, try adding a tablespoon of water at a time and mix well until desired consistency.
Nothing short of wonderful!
Enjoy the taste of summer !
