Preheat your oven or toaster oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the red bell pepper into flat pieces, discarding the stem and seeds. Lightly brush the pepper pieces with olive oil and roast in the oven for 5 minutes, or until lightly charred and softened.
While the pepper roasts, slice the cucumber into thin rounds, peel the carrot and cut it into thin ribbons using a vegetable peeler, and thinly slice the red onion.
Toast the whole grain bread slices to your preferred level of crispiness.
Spread 1.5 tablespoons of hummus on each slice of bread.
Scoop the avocado into a small bowl, mash it with a fork, and season with the salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.
On one slice of the hummus-coated bread, layer the spinach leaves, roasted red bell pepper, cucumber slices, carrot ribbons, and red onion slices.
Carefully spread the mashed avocado mixture over the other slice of bread.
Close the sandwich by placing the avocado slice of bread onto the vegetable-filled slice, hummus-side down.
Gently press the sandwich together and slice it in half, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
