Toast the gluten-free sandwich bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until lightly golden and crisp. Set aside to cool slightly.
Spread 1.5 tablespoons of hummus evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
Slice the roasted red bell pepper into thin strips, and layer it on top of the hummus on one slice of bread.
Thinly slice the cucumber, red onion, and tomato, and add them to the sandwich in layers over the roasted red bell pepper.
Add the kalamata olives and fresh spinach leaves to the sandwich for a burst of flavor and texture.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the vegetables, and sprinkle with dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Place the second slice of bread (hummus side down) on top of the pile of veggies to complete the sandwich.
Slice the sandwich diagonally, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Gluten-Free Vegan Mediterranean Sandwich!
