BETTER-THAN-TUNA, CHICKPEA SALAD

Inspired from the recipe in Vegan Table. "This recipe has all the flavor of the lunchtime staple but leaves the cholesterol, and mercury behind" I usually cut this recipe in HALF, and as you can see from the list of ingredients, that is quite easy to do! I also like to add dill pickle to mine, which I've listed below. Some chopped scallion might be nce too... ^_^

Steps:

  • Add the chickpeas to a food processor or blender and pulse to grind them down into small flaky pieces.
  • In a large bowl, combine the first nine ingredients and mix well. Season with salt and pepper, to taste and serve as a salad or sandwich filling.

2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed (or 3 cups fresh beans from scratch)
1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise (I use Vegenaise)
1 medium red bell pepper, finely chopped
2 carrots, peeled and finely chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
4 dill pickle spears, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 cup walnuts, chopped
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

THE "BETTER THAN TUNA" VEGAN CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICH

You wouldn't think tuna salad would be something a person would miss after going vegetarian/vegan, but every now and then, I crave it, and I want something simple - no cooking required! This recipe is perfect for a picnic; quick lunch; or a fast, light dinner. Chickpeas resemble the texture of tuna when you pulse them in a food processor. Spread this on some toasted bread with green leaf lettuce or dip into it with crackers. The best part? It's cholesterol and mercury free and super yummy!
