Open-Faced Hummus & Feta Sandwiches

Good With: Soup, Stand Alone
Time: <5 Minutes
Cost: 98¢

Hummus, the product of smooshing chickpeas, and feta, the product of smooshing and curing cow’s, sheep’s or goat’s milk in a brine for a bunch of months – why wouldn’t they go together? Cucumber adds some fresh crunchiness, which compliments the sandwich’s softer ingredients. I often eat this for breakfast, because of the feta’s impressive protein content, as well as the fiber and Vitamin C from the bread, hummus and cucumber. Plus, it’s ready literally in minutes, and is a nice low-calorie option at any time of day.

2 slices whole wheat sourdough bread
