Baby Spinach and Hummus Sandwich

Baby Spinach and Hummus Sandwich with a side of Veggies

Prep Time: 2 minutes

Ingredients:

1. 2 Slices of bread (any kind)
2. 2 tbsp plain hummus
3. About half a cup of fresh baby spinach.

Directions:

Liberally apply hummus to both slices of bread. Stack baby spinach, and slap 'em slices together!! Voila!! I had it with a side of Mushrooms & Green Beans. You could also toast the sandwich for a delicious Panini.
