Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium (sliced lengthwise to form 'bread' slices) Zucchini
- 0.5 large (mashed) Avocado
- 2 leaves Lettuce
- 2 slices Tomato
- 4 slices Cucumber
- 2 thin rings Red onion
- 2 strips Roasted bell pepper
- 2 tbsp Hummus (Keto-friendly, made with cauliflower or macadamia nuts instead of chickpeas)
- 1 tsp Olive oil
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Wash all vegetables thoroughly and pat them dry.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin slices. These will serve as the 'bread' for your sandwich. Pat the slices with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
Lay one zucchini slice flat and spread 1 tablespoon of Keto-friendly hummus evenly across the surface.
Place a lettuce leaf on top of the hummus as the first layer of your sandwich.
Stack 2 slices of tomato, 2 slices of cucumber, and 1 ring of red onion on top of the lettuce.
Add 1 roasted bell pepper strip. Then, spread half of the mashed avocado over the top of the veggies.
Top the stacked veggies with the second zucchini slice to complete the sandwich.
Drizzle the olive oil over the top zucchini slice and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper to finish.
Cut your keto veggie sandwich in halves or quarters for easy handling. Serve immediately and enjoy!
