Finally, since this sandwich is entirely plant-based, we spread a thick layer of hummus for extra protein.

Materials

  • 1 red bell pepper sliced into wide, thin strips
  • 1 small zucchini sliced into wide, thin strips
  • 1 Tbsp. avocado oil
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • pinch black pepper
  • 4 slices bread GF if necessary
  • 2 Tbsp. plain hummus
  • 1/2 ripe avocado

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Arrange bell pepper and zucchini slices across the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, flip, and make for another 20—or until edges are dark and crisp. Remove veggies from oven and set aside.
  • While veggies roast, toast bread in toaster or on skillet. Once toasted, spread 2 slices of bread with 1 Tbsp. of hummus each. On the two remaining pieces, mash avocado.
  • Divide roasted veggies between the two sandwiches and top with lettuce if desired. Enjoy immediately.
  • Leftovers will not keep well, so if leftovers must be kept, store veggies, hummus, and avocado separate from bread, refrigerated in airtight container for up to two days.
