How to Make It
1 Spread the toasted bread generously with hummus. Sprinkle the green onion, cilantro, and kale evenly over the hummus.
2 Slice the cucumber into 8 rounds and spread each round with a thin layer of mustard.
3 Place the cucumber rounds, mustard-side down, on top of the cilantro-kale layer and press down, if necessary, so they stay in place.
4 Sprinkle the open-faced sandwich generously with lemon pepper, cut in half or quarters, if desired, and serve.
