Start by toasting the gluten-free bread slices in a toaster or on a grill pan until they are golden brown and crisp.
While the bread is toasting, prepare the vegetables. Thinly slice the cucumber, tomato, and red bell pepper.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Add the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mash the avocado mixture with a fork until creamy and well combined.
Spread the hummus generously on one side of each toasted bread slice.
On one slice, layer the lettuce leaves first, followed by the sliced cucumber, tomato, and red bell pepper.
Top the vegetable layers with the mashed avocado spread.
Place the other slice of bread on top of the avocado spread, hummus side down, to complete the sandwich.
Press down gently on the sandwich to help hold it together, then slice it in half if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your gluten-free hummus sandwich.
