"The Greek" aka An Insanely Awesome Hummus Sandwich {with a vegetarian option}



We fondly refer to this sandwich as "The Greek". It's loaded with greek flavors, healthy, satisfying, and oh-so-delicious! Confession: see that massive sandwich down there? I can only ever eat half of one because it ends up being so huge!

What you'll need:

8 pieces of sturdy whole wheat bread
1/2 cup hummus *homemade or storebought
1/4-1/2 cup feta cheese
arugula or spring greens, washed and dried
kalamata or regular black olives, cut in half
roasted deli turkey, omit for vegetarian
sliced tomatoes or roasted red bell peppers
sliced cucumbers
sliced red onion
marinated artichoke hearts

optional for spreading on top piece of bread: Opa Feta Dill Dressing, Dilly of a Dip, or mayo with fresh or dried dill sprinkled on top.

I assemble my sandwiches in this order: bread, hummus, feta cheese, lettuce, olives, turkey, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, artichoke hearts. Then I spread the top bread slice with Opa Feta Dill Dressing and finish the sandwich off with that piece of bread.

Insanely delicious. Really.

Yield: 4 sandwiches
