Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Whole-grain bread
- 2 medium Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 large Carrot
- 2 cups Baby spinach
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 cup Alfalfa sprouts (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the avocado spread by scooping the flesh from the avocados into a medium bowl.
Mash the avocados with a fork until smooth, leaving a few small chunks for texture.
Mix in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. Set aside.
Wash all the vegetables thoroughly. Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips, the cucumber into rounds, and the red onion into thin rings.
Peel the carrot and use a vegetable peeler to create long, thin ribbons.
On a clean work surface, lay out 4 slices of whole-grain bread. Spread a generous amount of the avocado mixture on each slice.
Layer the vegetables over the avocado spread, starting with baby spinach, followed by carrot ribbons, red bell pepper strips, cucumber slices, red onion rings, and alfalfa sprouts if using.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the layered vegetables for extra flavor.
Top each sandwich with another slice of bread. Press down gently to stabilize the layers.
Slice each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy!
