Chickpea Salad Sandwich

This is a perfect lunch to take to work, along with an apple. Have it as a sandwich, or wrapped in lettuce or collard greens. You can give a slightly ocean-y flavor with mineral-dense sea vegetables if you prefer a tuna-like salad.

Ingredients

  • 1 14oz can chickpeas, or 1 1/2 cups cooked
  • 1/2 cup celery, diced
  • 1/2 cup bell pepper, diced
  • 1 Tbsp green onion, or chives chopped
  • 2-3 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Avo Mayo

  • 1 avocado
  • 1/4 lemon, juice
  • 1 clove fresh garlic, optional, or 1 tsp garlic powder
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard, optional
  • 1 tsp paprika, optional
  • 1 Tbsp nori, kelp or other sea vegetable, chopped (optional)
  • sea salt, to taste

Sandwich

  • 8 slices whole grain bread, or 4 pitas, wraps, or large lettuce leaves
  • 2 cups lettuce, spinach or sprouts
  • 1 cup tomato, sliced

Instructions

  • Puree the avocado mayo ingredients until smooth, adding more water if necessary for consistency.
  • Mash the chickpeas with a fork, potato masher or your hands. Mix in the rest of the chickpea salad ingredients.
  • Spread some of the chickpea salad onto a slice of bread, or into a pita or wrap. Top it with spinach, lettuce or sprouts. It's great as an open-face sandwich with a big leaf of lettuce instead of a 2nd slice of bread.
  • Put the sandwich in a baggie or container, and refrigerate until you eat it.
