- 1 tablespoon Carrots (shredded)
- 4–6 slivers Red Onion (thinly sliced)
- 4–6 slivers Red Bell Pepper (thinly sliced)

Instructions
- Spread Condiments: Generously spread hummus on one slice of the whole grain bread and pesto on the other slice to create a flavorful base for your sandwich.
- Layer Ingredients: Start stacking your shredded carrots, thinly sliced red onions, red bell peppers, cucumber slices, sprouts, romaine lettuce leaves, thin apple slices, and avocado slices in layers on one slice of bread. Add crunchy toppings like pepitas or roasted chickpeas for extra texture. Season with salt and pepper to your taste.
- Assemble and Serve: Place the second slice of bread on top to close your sandwich. Wrap it tightly in parchment paper, then cut the sandwich in half for easy serving and enjoy your fresh, colorful veggie sandwich.
Notes
- You can customize the crunchy toppings according to your preference—nuts or seeds work great.
- Use pickles instead of cucumbers if you prefer a tangier flavor.
- Make sure to slice the apple thinly to balance its sweetness with the savory elements.
- Wrap in parchment to keep the sandwich fresh and easy to handle.
- Store any leftover ingredients separately to avoid sogginess.
