Ingredients
  

1 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

1 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 small eggplant, sliced into rounds

1 cup fresh spinach or arugula

4 slices of whole-grain bread or your choice

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Balsamic glaze (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Prepare the veggies: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, and eggplant. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.

    Grill the vegetables: Preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the seasoned veggies on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.

      Assemble the sandwich: Take one slice of bread and spread a generous layer of hummus on one side. Top with a handful of fresh spinach or arugula, followed by a mix of the grilled vegetables. Drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired, then top with another slice of bread.

        Grill the sandwich: Wipe the grill pan clean or use a non-stick skillet. Lightly brush the outside of the sandwich with olive oil. Grill the sandwich for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.

          Serve: Remove the sandwich from the grill, let it cool for a moment, and then slice in half. Serve warm with your favorite side (like a salad or chips) or enjoy on its own.
