Chickpea Salad
This is BOMB served in a wrap with fresh veggies and lettuce or in between your favorite sprouted whole grain or gluten free bread slices-
LOVE THIS! The celery really makes it taste like a mock tuna fish salad so don’t skimp! Feel free to choose other add-ins, like olives, herbs, fresh sweet peppers etc….
1 1/2c cooked chickpeas
2 stalks celery, minced
¼ red onion, super minced *opt
1/3c vegan mayonnaise
1t ume vinegar
salt and pepper to taste
2t dulse *opt (more like a tuna fish taste)
pinch cayenne pepper *opt
Place the drained chickpeas in a bowl and mash slightly with a fork or the backside of a large spoon. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until combined and well incorporated.
If you have a food processor, you can do all of the grunt work in it- start by processing the celery, then the onions- remove to the work bowl, then process the chickpeas by pulsing- not over processing, but letting the chickpeas stay somewhat intact- then add all other ingredients intot he work bowl and mix.
