This protein-packed hummus sandwich features a topping of crisp veggies, feta cheese and sweet, tangy sun-dried tomatoes. Sun-dried tomatoes in oil have a soft texture that's perfect for sandwiches.

Cucumber–Tuna Salad Sandwich
Cucumber brings a refreshing crunch to the creamy tuna salad in this easy sandwich. We opted for Greek-style yogurt to reduce fat and calories and add some tanginess to the dressing. Stir some relish, chopped celery or pickled peppers into the tuna mixture to boost the flavor even more. Serve with potato chips, chopped fresh veggies or with bagel chips on the side.

Tomato & Cucumber Sandwich with Bacon
This refreshing, tangy sandwich is easy to pull together when you're short on time. You can lightly toast the bread if you want a little crunch. Fresh dill adds a grassy flavor—if you don't have fresh, use 1/8 teaspoon dried dill in its place. Make it a vegetarian sandwich by skipping the bacon in favor of sliced cheese or an extra slice of tomato.

Cucumber Sandwich with Cotija & Lime
This easy vegetarian cucumber sandwich draws flavor inspiration from elote, the Mexican street corn dish. Instead of corn, we flavor cucumber slices with cotija cheese, lime and cilantro for a tasty filling. Cotija—a salty, crumbly Mexican cheese—is similar in flavor and texture to feta cheese, which can be used as a substitute. Arugula adds a peppery flavor, but any tender greens will work well here.

Cucumber Salad Sandwich
Who said you couldn't put a salad on a sandwich? Flavor this creamy cucumber filling with your favorite fresh herbs, tangy feta cheese and lemon. Salting the cucumber then patting it dry removes some of the moisture, so the filling doesn't make the bread too soggy. If you like crispy bread, toast it first for extra crunch.

Cucumber Caprese Sandwich
We added cucumber and greens to the tomato for this refreshing cucumber caprese sandwich, flavored with pesto, fresh mozzarella and a sweet balsamic glaze.
