Spring is in the air and I’m doing a happy dance because my favorite season has arrived. The days are getting longer and I try to find excuses to be outside instead of indoors. Cooking is taking a backseat to gardening and the front porch has become my new office. It’s so much more fun to work outside.
Also, the boys are in the midst of baseball season and I try to never miss a game. The oldest grandson made the middle school team this year (go, team!) and we’ll be traveling to all his away games too.
Between baseball and gardening, there’s no time or inclination to cook long meals. I don’t want to heat up the house or spend my time in the kitchen. Hello, spring!
There’s something about spring that has me craving light fare, so I created a Mediterranean Ham and Veggie Sandwich that fits perfectly into my busy lifestyle.
Over the years, I’ve perfected the art of flavorful sandwich making and today I’m sharing it all with you. Let’s get started!
Mediterranean Ham and Veggie Sandwich
1. Start with great tasting bread.
A delicious sandwich begins with the best bread. That’s why I use Pepperidge Farm® Whole Grain 15 Grain Bread. It’s low fat, cholesterol free, contains no high fructose corn syrup and is certified by the American Heart Association. Plus, it’s double-wrapped for freshness.
2. Use quality ingredients.
When making a Mediterranean Ham and Veggie Sandwich, Hillshire Farm® Thin Sliced Honey Ham is a key ingredient. It’s sliced extra-thin and slow roasted for hours – just the way I like it.
Since Walmart has everything I need to make a great tasting sandwich, I don’t have to run all over town looking for quality products.
3. It’s all in the layering.
No one likes a soggy sandwich. That’s why I layer the ham first. Next, I add Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise.
My Mediterranean Ham and Veggie Sandwich includes the addition of hummus. I add it right on the top of the Hellman’s® Real Mayonnaise. It adds an intense flavor that’s spicy and delicious. A sprinkle of feta cheese adds a tangy, slightly salty taste that compliments the other flavors.
The alfalfa sprouts are added next. The sprouts add a yummy layer of crunch and color.
I end the layering with another thin layer of ham and top it off with another slice of bread. Ta-da – the perfect layered sandwich!

This looks delicious! I love a good hummus and this definitely looks like it would be a great addition to my lunch this week! Thanks for sharing.
Now that is my kind of sandwich! I could eat one of these every single day! It sounds ah-mazing.
There are so many different kinds of great tasting breads. We do mostly homemade since we grow our own wheat. For those who don’t make their own bread choose a good brand is very important.
That looks so good! I love all of the ingredients, but I wouldn’t have thought of putting them all together! I love spring, but my face (sinuses) are not happy with the allergens in the air.
This looks delicious! Too bad we’re not neighbors, I’d swing by so you could make me one! #client
This is definitely hitting my hunger just right. I love sandwiches like this. It’s got a little crunch to it and a different flavor than your regular plain old ham and cheese sandwich. Yummy!
Really, the best part about sandwichs for me is the addition of mayo. I like that you add the hummus, too!
We have Pepperidge Farm bread in the cabinet right now, it’s our fav. My hubby enjoys taking his lunch to work because it is just easier and Hillshire Farm is his brand for lunch meat.
I’m with you baseball season has us pretty busy and it’s already heated up here in Georgia. Sandwiches are on the dinner menu this week!
I just had lunch and am now hungry again lol. I haven’t tried alfalfa sprouts before but looks like a good alternative in place of lettuce. Will have to try these 🙂
My husband would drool on that sandwich, it looks delicious! I might try to make him one of these.
This sandwich looks so hearty and filling. I mean, you’ve got protein, carbs, and veggies all in one bite. I am saving this recipe and making these sandwiches for me and my husband to take to work!
I have never eaten hummus! That sandwich looks spectacular! I’d definitely be willing to give it a try if it tastes as gfood as it looks 🙂
Ooh, I love a great veggie sandwich. With the ham and mediterranean flavors, this sandwich sounds like a hit! I am pretty sure this recipe would be a winner in my house.
I love that you added feta cheese. It adds such a salty, tangy element to your average sandwich.
Mediterranean Ham and Veggie Sandwich looks so good. I have never added hummus to a sandwich before but I will have to try this idea for sure. Thanks for sharing this awesome sandwich.
Yum, I love hummus. I’ll have to try your sandwhich idea. Looks good!
Lunch is one of those meals that should be so easy, but never is. And you know why? It’s because it gets boring so fast. Until, hummus. Hummus makes lunch exciting again. And hummus sandwiches, those are winners every time.
This looks wonderful! We love mediterranean flavors and hummus is a staple in our fridge. It would make a quick and healthy lunch for my husband when he comes home mid-day. Thanks so much for a yummy idea!
Hellmann’s is seriously the best brand for mayo. There is nothing like the taste of their mayo on a sandwich. Hummus on a sandwich sounds like bliss.
Now that is a great looking sandwich! I love eating sandwiches for lunch and can’t wait to try this tomorrow.
My daughter loves to pack ham and cheese sandwiches for lunch,this will make a great option for her.
