Yummy Sandwich, perfect for a hot afternoon!

Ingredients

• 2 15-ounce cans white beans, rinsed and drained
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 12 slices multigrain bread
• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 cucumber, preferably hothouse (seedless), thinly sliced (peeled, if desired)
• 1 4- to 5-ounce container sprouts (such as alfalfa, radish, broccoli, or a combination)
• 2 avocados, pitted and thinly sliced

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, combine the beans, oil, salt, and pepper. Roughly mash the mixture with the back of a fork.

(optional: substitute your favorite hummus)

2. Place 8 of the bread slices on a work surface. Divide the mashed beans among them. Top with the onion, cucumber, sprouts, and avocado.

3. Stack the open-faced sandwiches on top of one another, avocado-side up, to make 4 double-decker sandwiches. Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread. 

(optional- I just make a single sandwich)

4. Slice each sandwich in half, if desired, and serve.

Tip

For extra flavor, mix some fresh lemon juice and chopped garlic into the bean mixture.
