12 Grain Bread (see other blog post for recipe)
Cucumber, sliced
Bell peppers, sliced
Avocados, silced
Tomatos, sliced
Sprouts (I like to home grow mine. I'll post about that later)
Havarti, swiss, or any cheese of your liking
Roasted red bell pepper hummus
I LOVE this sandwich so much!! Get two nice slices of bread, spread both slices with hummus, then just layer the veggies high and mighty! It might look a little too large for your mouth, but don't worry, it'll all work out!! Feel free to experiment and add whatever it is you like to this sandwich. The possibilities are endless!
While you're slicing your bell peppers and cucumbers, just add them to your kids after school snack veggie tray. Or dice up your extra peppers and add them to your morning omelet. There are so many uses for your extra veggies. It's worth the time it will take you to cut them up!!
Tip: Store your extra avocado with the pit inside and wrap tightly with aluminum foil to prevent it from going brown. Then store it in your fridge. Use within a couple of days.
Tip: If you don't make your own bread, when looking for wheat or grain breads in the store, make sure the first ingredient is wheat flour and not enriched flour. You want as little ingredients as possible, unless it's all seeds and grains. If you can't understand it, don't buy it! The more whole ingredients the better. And if you can buy from a local bakery that grinds their wheat daily, even better!! (Like Aspen Mills orGreat Harvest Bread Co. )
