Last week I went to Virginia for a blogging event with Sabra. We toured chickpea fields, took a tour of the hummus factory, and tasted lots and lots of hummus. I was on a hummus high:) When I got home I was going through hummus withdrawals so I made a Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, Avocado, and Feta Sandwich. This quick and easy sandwich is a new favorite. It has all of my favorite flavors in one sandwich!
It’s been in the 100’s in Utah so I haven’t been cooking a ton, plus I have been traveling a lot. So simple meals have been my best friend. This Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, Avocado, and Feta Sandwich only took minutes to make and really hit the spot. Sandwiches are great for lunch, dinner, and I can even see myself eating this tasty sandwich for breakfast.
I used Sabra’s Roasted Red Pepper Hummus. It is one of my all-time favorite hummus flavors and is amazing on this sandwich. I also mixed together smashed avocado, feta cheese, basil, and a little splash of fresh lemon juice. I spread the hummus and avocado feta mixture on whole wheat bread and added roasted red peppers.
Josh had the grill on-he was grilling sweet corn, so I had him grill the sandwiches. Best decision ever! I loved the warm toasted bread with the creamy sandwich fillings! We enjoyed these sandwiches for dinner with fruit, sweet corn, and pita chips. It was the perfect summer meal. And our little pea devoured his sandwich. He had hummus, avocado, and a big smile on his face. He approved!
This simple Roasted Red Pepper, Avocado, and Feta Sandwich is great for a quick meal. It only takes minutes to make, but will leave you satisfied! I know we will be making this sandwich again and again!
Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, Avocado, & Feta Sandwich
Ingredients
- 4 slices whole wheat bread
- 1/2 cup roasted red pepper hummus
- 2 ripe avocados pit removed
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon freshly chopped basil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup roasted red peppers drained
Instructions
- 1. Spread the bread slices evenly with roasted red pepper hummus. Set aside.
- 2. In a small bowl, combine avocado and feta cheese. Mash with a fork. Add the lemon juice, basil, salt, and pepper.
- 3. Spread the avocado feta mixture over the red pepper hummus. Top with roasted red peppers, on two slices of the bread. Place other pieces of bread on top to form a sandwich.
- 4. Brush the outside pieces of bread with olive oil or butter and place on a hot grill or hot pan. Grill each side until toasted, about 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately.
- Note-you can serve the sandwich cold, without grilling it. It is just as tasty! For gluten-free, use gluten-free bread.

Disclosure-this post is in partnership with Sabra, but of course our opinions are our own!
Drain a can of chickpeas and put them in a food processor with juice of one lemon and two or three cloves of garlic. Process while drizzling in some olive oil until you like the consistency. Use this homemade hummus on your sammie along with roasted peppers and avocado slices. Other veggies work well too. Tomato slices, cukes, grilled portobellos, sweet onion slices, experiment and make something different each time. Yummy!
Try this with goat cheese instead of feta…it’s nice and creamy!
Do you have nutritional break down for your recipes?
Made this today! Didn’t have feta, but the sandwich was still extremely delicious! It’s so tasty when it’s grilled/ heated up. Thanks for the great recipe!
These are great, though I didn’t make them exactly to recipe. Made them open face on one slice of bread (Wholesome Harvest 9 Grain & Seed bread) toasted in a toaster with no additional oil or butter. Used regular hummus instead of Red pepper and did not use jarred rosted red peppers, instead peeled and sliced up a raw red pepper for crunch. And I didn’t use the basil. I hate cilantro, but did think cilantro lovers could replace the basil with cilantro.
Did anyone make this sandwich the night before for lunch the next day? Just wondering if it got soggy? Or if you have any tips from preventing it from getting soggy. Since its layered with hummus and avo smash I assume the bread would soak it up overnight?
Thanks x
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! This sandwich was OUT OF THIS WORLD! My boyfriend LOVES this sandwich – he almost ate mine hehe He’s very picky, so I’m glad you posted this!
Opps! I bought goat cheese crumbles at the store instead of feta! Still is yummy! Yummy Mistake!
But I still wonder what the feta one tastes like!!!
The sandwich would be a little bit better with some sliced sirloin, medium rare.
Oh my gosh. This literally looks like heaven….
This is the best sandwich I have ever had! Wow!
Glad you enjoyed it!
nice
I rarely leave reviews but this sandwich is so easy, nutritious and flavorful that I have to! This is on regular rotation in our house and it’s so satisfying. It also makes great leftovers so I build my sandwich and put it in the fridge for the next day! My meat-loving husband loves it too because it’s super filling!
The flavors are good. Very light sandwich. Could use more substance. It’s soo soft I can’t avoid it coming out the sides.
