Ingredients

1 zucchini, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds

1 red bell pepper, cut into strips

1 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips

1 red onion, sliced into rings

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon garlic powder

4 slices of whole grain bread

1 cup of hummus (store-bought or homemade)

Fresh spinach leaves, for layering

Optional: feta cheese or vegan feta, crumbled

Instructions
 

Prepare the Vegetables: In a large bowl, toss the eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, and red onion with olive oil, salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic powder until well coated.

    Grill the Veggies: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks. Remove from heat and set aside.

      Toast the Bread: While the veggies are grilling, toast the whole grain bread slices on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

        Assemble the Sandwich: Spread a generous layer of hummus on one side of each slice of toasted bread. On two slices, layer the grilled vegetables and add a handful of fresh spinach leaves. If using, sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese on top.

          Close and Serve: Top with the remaining slices of hummus-covered bread, slice in half, and serve immediately. Enjoy your savory, colorful grilled veggie hummus sandwich!
