Rinse the vegan shrimp and pat dry with a paper towel.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the vegan shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned and heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.
While the shrimp is cooking, mash the avocado in a small bowl, then mix in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to make a creamy spread.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and the cucumber into thin rounds.
Toast the bread slices to your desired level of crunch.
To assemble the sandwich: spread 1/4 of the avocado mixture on one slice of toast, layer with lettuce, cucumber, and half of the cherry tomatoes.
Add half of the cooked vegan shrimp on top, sprinkle with fresh dill.
Top with another slice of bread spread with another 1/4 of the avocado mixture.
Repeat the process for the second sandwich.
Slice the sandwiches in half diagonally and serve immediately.
