• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 small Avocado (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Wash all the vegetables thoroughly under running water to remove dirt and debris.

Spread the carrot and onion salad mixture evenly on top of the sliced veggies.

Step 8

Place the remaining bread slice on top of the layered veggies to complete the sandwich.

Step 9
