• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

• 4 tablespoons Hummus (store-bought or homemade)
• 0.5 medium Cucumber
• 6 pieces Cherry tomatoes
• 6 pieces Kalamata olives (pitted)
• 1 cup Arugula
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the eggplant, zucchini, and red bell pepper. Slice the eggplant and zucchini into thin rounds and cut the bell pepper into strips.

Step 3

Arrange the vegetables on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, sweet paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 5

While the vegetables are roasting, thinly slice the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the Kalamata olives.

Step 6

Once the vegetables are roasted, warm the gluten-free pita bread in the oven for 2-3 minutes or until soft.

Step 7

Spread 2 tablespoons of hummus on the inside of each pita bread.

Step 8

Fill each pita with an even mix of roasted vegetables, fresh cucumber slices, cherry tomato halves, Kalamata olives, and a handful of arugula.

Step 9

Drizzle a small amount of lemon juice on top of the ingredients inside each sandwich to brighten the flavors.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Soy-Free Vegan Mediterranean Sandwich!
