Recipe: Hummus, Tomato, Spinach and Sprouts Sandwich
Today for lunch I looked in the refrigerator to see what I could create. It was slim pickings let me tell you! Husband and I were in California all week, and we just stopped by the little market in town on the way home for a few things. However, I still had some sunflower greens left (they keep for a week or two after picking if you put them dry into an airtight container in the refrigerator). I had just picked up the tomatoes and the Sara Lee Thin Style Buns (honey wheat) at the market. So, I spread some hummus onto the bun...
I used the Athenos Roasted Garlic Hummus that I had on hand.
Here is a picture of the sunflower greens that I grew a couple of weeks ago.
From there, it was just assembling all of the ingredients.
It was really very delicious. I put some spinach on (see it peeking out under the sliced tomatoes?).
For under 200 calories, this is a very delicious sandwich, full of flavor and nutrition. Here's the recipe (copy and paste it to a word document, and then print it out):
Hummus, Tomato, Spinach and Sprouts Sandwich
Sara Lee Thin Style Buns 100 calories
2 TBSP Hummus, 50 calories
Sunflower sprouts, Spinach, Sliced tomatoes, 25 calories if that
Open bun. Spread 1 TBSP of hummus on each side of bun. Place spinach, sprouts and sliced tomato on either side of bun. Carefully put tomato side on top of sprout side to form the sandwich. Enjoy!
Try it and let me know how much you enjoyed it!
