Fully Loaded Sandwich

- ½ripe avocado

- 1 teaspoonstone-ground or Dijon mustard

- ¼ cupsliced red cabbage
- ¼ cupbroccoli sprouts, or any favorite sprout
- 1 tablespoonPickled Red Onions (page 174)
Method
- Toast the bread and let cool before adding the toppings to prevent it from getting soggy.
- Tear the lettuce into pieces the size of your bread. Julienne or shred the carrot. Thinly slice the cucumber. Cut thick slices of the avocado and tomato.
- Spread the mustard and hummus, if using, on each slice of bread.
- Build your sandwich: Top one slice of bread with half of the lettuce leaves, then the carrot, cucumber, salt and pepper, red cabbage, avocado, sprouts, tomato, pickled red onions, then the remaining lettuce, and top with the second slice of bread.
- Wrap tightly in parchment paper and slice in half to see all the colorful layers of your healthy veggie sandwich!
