I didn’t originally plan to post two sandwich recipes in a row, but I guess I’ve had sandwiches on the brain with the warmer summer weather we’ve been having. These Veggie Sandwiches with Hummus are a bit of a no-recipe recipe, but they’re too good not to share.
I saw someone on TikTok doing a summer sandwich series, and she called them her “Pool Sandwiches.” I love the idea of a summer pool sandwich, so this veggie-packed hummus sandwich is my version. I hope you’re having a great summer and getting to a lake or pool as much as possible!
Veggie Sandwiches with Hummus Recipe Ingredients and Substitutions
- Bread – You can use whatever type of sandwich bread you like. I used regular, whole-wheat sandwich bread. A hoagie-style roll or even a tortilla wrap works, too.
- Hummus – I used plain hummus because that’s what I had on hand, but feel free to use flavored hummus. I’ve had a caramelized onion and balsamic hummus that would be really great on this sandwich!
- Feta Cheese – I added some feta cheese for creaminess and saltiness. You can also use goat cheese, Boursin (regular or dairy-free), dairy-free feta, or omit the cheese.
- Veggies – I added lettuce, cucumber, tomato, avocado, and red onion. You can add any other vegetables you like.
- Fresh Herbs – I added some fresh dill, but any other fresh herb will go great with these ingredients.
How To Make The Best Vegetarian Sandwich
- Thinly slice your tomato, cucumber, avocado, and red onion. Dice your fresh herbs and tear your lettuce into small pieces. Slice feta into thin pieces.
- Toast bread, if desired. Lay one slice of bread on a cutting board or plate. Spread the slice of bread with a few spoonfuls of hummus, and then add the feta cheese.
- Next, layer all of the vegetables onto the sandwich. I like to season between a few of the layers with a little salt and pepper to add extra flavor. Add the fresh herbs wherever you prefer on the sandwich. Slice the sandwich in half and enjoy!
Veggie Hummus Sandwiches Frequently Asked Questions
- Can gluten-free bread be used for these sandwiches? Definitely!
- Are these veggie sandwiches vegan? I did use regular feta cheese, but cheese can be omitted or substituted with vegan cheese.
- Does the bread need to be toasted? It can be; I did not toast mine.
- How long will sandwiches last if packed to go? If you use good, sturdy, or toasted bread, it should hold up for up to 24 hours without getting too soggy. If you are packing these sandwiches to eat later, I recommend patting your veggies dry before adding them to the sandwich.
