I made a loaf of bread and decided we needed to make some awesome sammies. This is inspired by a local restaurant that started serving a similar option with ham… we are skipping that and going straight for the good stuff.
This is as amazing as it is simple. Cucumber, pitted kalamata olives, spinach and your favorite hummus. Slice the cucumber and peel it if you like.
We spread hummus on the bread, put the olives on it (slice them in half if you like), add the spinach and then use the cucumber to moosh it down. Add some more hummus to the top piece of bread if you like.
NOM!
This was an awesome snack that was crisp and cooling from the cucumber and spinach with a savory element from the olives and hummus. It is an excellent option for a hot afternoon or just as a midnight snack.

The bread looks great – and all that good stuff inside – yum!
Thanks! You’re definitely a big inspiration for me taking up baking again… it’s an adventure, for sure!
I love that you’re still making your own bread! That sandwich looks fantastic!
Each one is an experiment. Every time one turns out not-quite-right I think of you and your six loaves a week. It’s inspiring so thanks to you!
