Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole wheat bread
- 3 tablespoons Low-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 medium Tomato
- 0.5 medium Cucumber
- 1 small Carrot
- 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a creamy, flavorful spread. Set aside.
Wash and prepare the vegetables. Thinly slice the tomato and cucumber. Grate the carrot using a box grater. Rinse and pat dry the lettuce leaves.
Lay out the slices of whole wheat bread on a clean surface or cutting board. Spread the yogurt-based mixture evenly onto one side of each slice.
On two of the bread slices, layer the vegetables: start with a lettuce leaf, then add slices of tomato and cucumber, a handful of grated carrot, and finish with another lettuce leaf.
Top each vegetable-layered slice with the remaining bread slices, spread side down, to complete the sandwiches.
Slice the sandwiches diagonally for easy serving, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy a healthy, low-fat meal!
