Garden Veggie Chickpea Salad Sandwich

Step 1

Drain and rinse your chickpeas and add them to a large bowl. Mash with a potato masher until texture appears flaked, almost like tuna salad. I use both a potato masher and follow up with a fork to make sure every chickpea is deliciously smashed. You could also use a food processor and skip the arm workout!

Step 2

Chop your green onion, celery, shredded carrots, pepper, and pickles.

Step 3

Add to the bowl with your chickpeas, then add mayo, dijon, yellow mustard, dill, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat.

Step 4

Fold in sunflower seeds and basil (as much or as little as you'd like) and adjust any ingredients to taste.

Step 5

Pile high on bread with all your sandwich fixings or enjoy as a wrap, with crackers, on a salad, or simply dive into the bowl spoon-first - anything goes!
