Open-Faced Garden Sandwich

Author: Hip Foodie Mom

Ingredients

  • Bread/baguette I used my fave olive oil & rosemary bread
  • Hummus
  • Cheese optional
  • Lettuce butter, red leaf or romaine- whatever you have
  • Bell peppers yellow or orange
  • Cucumbers
  • Heirloom tomatoes if you can't get any heirloom, any tomato will do
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Salt & pepper
  • Lemon or lime juice optional
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro optional

Instructions

  • Wash and chop/slice all of your veggies; set aside
  • Heat or toast your bread (with the cheese on if preferred)
  • Spread on the hummus and assemble. I assembled in this order: cheese, hummus, lettuce, cucumbers, bell peppers, tomatoes
  • Optional: in a small separate bowl, mix a little of the lettuce and cilantro together, season with salt and pepper and squeeze some lime juice over it all. Toss.
  • Place the salad mixture on top of your sandwich
  • Drizzle a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the top of the sandwich (no need to over-do it; a little will do). Enjoy!!
