Lightly toast the 4 slices of whole-grain bread and set them aside to cool slightly.
Spread an even layer of hummus (about 1/4 cup per slice) over each slice of bread.
Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and place them in a single layer over the hummus.
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and arrange them over the cucumber slices.
Peel and thinly slice the avocado. Divide the slices evenly among the sandwiches and layer them on top of the tomatoes.
Use a vegetable peeler to create thin ribbons out of the carrot. Add a few ribbons to each sandwich for a touch of crunch.
Thinly slice the radishes and scatter them over the sandwiches for added color and texture.
Top each sandwich with a small handful of arugula.
Drizzle each sandwich with a tiny splash of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over the sandwiches to taste.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, nutritious open-faced vegetable sandwiches!
