Start by preparing the vegetables: thinly slice the cucumber, tomato, and red onion. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado thinly.
In a small bowl, drizzle the sliced vegetables and avocado with olive oil, and sprinkle them with salt and black pepper. Toss gently to coat.
Lay out the slices of bread on a cutting board or clean surface.
Spread a generous amount of hummus on one side of each bread slice.
On two slices of the hummus-covered bread, layer the prepared vegetables. Begin with cucumber slices, followed by tomato slices, avocado slices, and red onion. Top with a leaf of lettuce.
Place the remaining slices of hummus-covered bread on top of the vegetables to form two sandwiches.
Gently press down on each sandwich to help hold it together.
For easier eating, slice each sandwich in half diagonally.
Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, vibrant flavors.
