Veggie Sandwich with Garlic Herb Cheese

The creamy spreadable cheese in this veggie sandwich adds flavor while holding everything in place. This colorful, well-balanced sandwich is crispy from the cucumber and peppers, sweet from the tomatoes and beets, and tangy from the banana peppers.

  • 1 cup thinly sliced peeled cucumber
  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium beefsteak tomato, sliced ¼-inch thick
  • ½ cup sliced cooked beets
