Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices whole wheat or nut bread toasted
  • 1 dollop hummus any flavor, I used zesty lemon
  • 1/3 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/3 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 5 cherry tomatoes sliced
  • 1/4 cup red onion very thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup salad dressing homemade or store bought
  • 1 thick slice Cheddar cheese
  • 3 slices avocado
  • salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine the shredded carrots, shredded lettuce, red onion and sliced cherry tomatoes.
  2. Add the salad dressing and set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally.
  3. Meanwhile, toast the bread.
  4. Spread the bottom slice with a thick layer of hummus.
  5. Top with the vegetable mixture, leaving the marinade behind in the bowl so the toast does not get soggy. Press the vegetables lightly into the hummus to hold them in place.
  6. Lay the Cheddar slice over the vegetables, then add the avocado slices.
  7. Sprinkle with salt and pepper or your favorite seasoning salt.
  8. Top with the second slice of bread, cut in half and serve.

Notes

Try it in a wrap, or switch up the veggies and cheese.
