Ingredients
A tip from Guacky: If you want to mix it up try adding sliced tomatoes but pat them dry to remove excess moisture before adding to the sandwich. Soggy bread is a big no no!
- 2 slices whole-grain bread
- 3 tablespoons hummus
- ¼ avocado, mashed
- 120g (½ cup) mixed salad greens
- ¼ medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 60g (¼ cup) sliced cucumber
- 60g (¼ cup) shredded carrot

A tip from Guacky: This sandwich makes a perfect packed lunch. You can make it ahead and refrigerate it up to 4 hours or pack it in an air-tight container with a cooler pack.
