Hummus Sandwich, no meat, all veggies!
I make hummus sandwiches all the time because they’re one of those meals that work with whatever I’ve got lying around in the fridge. Sometimes it’s leftover roasted veggies, other times it’s just lettuce and tomato with a big swipe of hummus. But this hummus sandwich combo is my favorite, it’s all veggies, stacked high, and soo GOOD.
The hummus is the base, then I pile on cucumbers, banana peppers, olives, banana peppers, and a little feta for a salty bite. Add a sprinkle of oregano, salt, and pepper, and you’ve got a killer veggie sandwich.
Happy Cooking!

Hummus Sandwich Ingredients
- Bread: Sliced whole grain bread is my go-to, but any sandwich bread is fine.
- Hummus: I love making homemade hummus, but any standard store-bought hummus will work, too.
- Leafy greens: I use spinach for this veggie sandwich, but arugula, cabbage, romaine lettuce, red lettuce, and kale will also work well!
- Cheese: I like using feta cheese for a Mediterranean flavor, but this sandwich will work really well with mozzarella cheese or provolone cheese, too.
- Cucumbers: I love the crunch of cucumbers in this recipe, but you can swap in tomatoes as well (or use both).
- Peppers: Spicy peppers, sweet bell peppers, pickled banana peppers, or a combination of the three will add really nice flavor to this sandwich.
- Onions: I prefer to use red onions since they’re more mild than white or yellow onions, but feel free to use whatever onions you have on hand.
- Olives: I like to add a few kalamata olives for a real pop of flavor. Black or green will also work well!
- Seasoning: Salt, pepper, and oregano are all you’ll need.
How to Make Hummus Sandwiches

Recipe Tips
- Don’t forget to toast your bread. Even if you just lightly toast each slice, it’ll help your bread to hold the weight of the hummus along with all the vegetables and condiments.
- Be sure to wash and dry your veggies. Use a salad spinner or paper towel to remove any excess moisture or your bread can get soggy.
- Add the seasoning on or underneath the cucumber layer. Because cucumbers have a high water content, they’ll absorb the seasoning best and help balance the flavor in the sandwich.
Serving Ideas
- Add protein. To make this one into a full meal, try adding some crispy tofu, or shredded chicken.
FAQs
Store any leftovers wrapped tightly in plastic wrap for up to 24 hours! Any longer and the veggies will start to lose their crunch.

So good! I used this recipe with sweet chili hummus and Trader Joe’s Mediterranean feta crumbles. Sprinkled the sliced cucumbers with a tiny bit of hoagie dressing oil. Worth slicing and prepping veggies for a couple days! Going into my weekly lunch prep rotation.
Sounds so good!!

Thank you, Luz!
I made your veggie hummus sandwich today, I had to pack it for lunch since I work the outdoors most days and have to eat in the work can. It was delicious! I substituted feta for field roast chao cheese, and it was AMAZING! Thanks for sharing 😊 I love your account, and especially love your plant based recipes. Being a vegan, it’s nice seeing more plant based content being promoted/supported. You’re actually the only account that I still follow that’s not entirely plant based because I love seeing your content! Keep up the great work 🥰💚
Yay, that makes me happy to hear. Thank you so much for taking the time to share. I truly appreciate it!
