• 0.25 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the whole wheat hoagie rolls lengthwise, but do not cut all the way through, so they remain hinged like a pocket.

Step 2

Spread 3 tablespoons of hummus evenly onto the inside of each roll.

Step 3

Layer the cucumber slices, followed by the tomato slices, Kalamata olives, and fresh spinach leaves in the roll.

Step 4

Add the red onion slices and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the vegetables.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 6

Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the fillings in the hoagie rolls to enhance the flavor.

Step 7

Close the sandwich, pressing gently to secure the ingredients, and serve immediately. For convenience, you can wrap the sandwich in parchment paper before serving or enjoy as is.
