Begin by preparing the avocado. Cut it in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork until smooth.
Season the mashed avocado with salt and black pepper to taste and set aside.
Wash the tomato, cucumber, carrot, and lettuce thoroughly under cold running water.
Slice the tomato and cucumber into thin rounds.
Grate the carrot using a box grater or a food processor.
Thinly slice the red onion.
Lay the slices of whole grain bread on a clean surface or cutting board.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over one side of both slices of bread.
On one slice of bread, layer the lettuce leaves first followed by the sliced tomato.
Add the cucumber slices, then sprinkle the grated carrot evenly over the top.
Place the red onion slices on top of the carrot for added crunch and flavor.
Spread the mustard over the remaining slice of bread. If desired, add more or less mustard according to taste.
Carefully place the mustard-coated slice of bread on top of the stacked vegetables, avocado side down.
Press gently to secure the sandwich.
Use a sharp knife to cut the sandwich in half diagonally, if desired.
Serve immediately while the bread is still slightly crisp and enjoy your delicious fresh veggie sandwich!
