Begin by preparing the avocado spread. Scoop out the flesh of half an avocado into a small bowl, and mash it with a fork until smooth. Mix in 1 teaspoon of lemon juice to prevent browning and add a hint of brightness.
Lay the two slices of whole grain seeded bread on a flat surface. On one slice, spread 1 tablespoon of no-sodium mustard evenly. On the other slice, spread the mashed avocado mixture.
Layer the sandwich with mixed leafy greens. Spread 1/2 cup of the greens evenly on top of the avocado spread.
Place 6 slices of cucumber, 2 slices of tomato, and 2 rings of red onion on top of the greens. Add 2 slices of radish for an extra crunch and a peppery flavor.
If desired, sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of ground black pepper over the layered vegetables for added seasoning.
Top the sandwich with the second slice of bread, mustard-side down.
Carefully cut the sandwich in half, securing it with sandwich picks if necessary, and serve immediately with a side of fresh fruits or a low-sodium soup.
