Cut the low-fat paneer into thin slices.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Lightly grill the paneer slices for about 2 minutes on each side until slightly golden, then remove from heat and set aside.
Wash and drain the fresh spinach leaves.
Thinly slice the tomato and cucumber.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork and mix in the lemon juice, black pepper, and salt to create an avocado spread.
To assemble the sandwich, lay out a slice of whole-grain bread. Spread a generous layer of the avocado spread.
Layer with a handful of spinach leaves, a couple of grilled paneer slices, slices of tomato, and cucumber.
Place another slice of bread on top to finish the sandwich.
Repeat the process for the remaining slices of bread to make four sandwiches.
Cut each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately.
