Chickpea Salad Sandwich

July 6, 2020 By Veronique

There’s nothing better than a delicious fresh sandwich during the warm summer months. Growing up, my favorite sandwich was a chicken salad sandwich but now that I eat mostly plant-based, I have come up with the perfect meatless alternative. This chickpea salad sandwich is packed with flavour so you won’t even miss the chicken. In this sandwich, I have added cranberries and almonds since I love the combination of sweet and savoury but this recipe can definitely be tweaked to use what you have on hand. This however, is my perfect chickpea salad sandwich combination.

Here is how this chickpea salad sandwich is made:

In a large bowl, mash the chickpeas using a potato masher or a fork. I like to mash about 95% of the chickpeas but I like to have a few whole ones to add texture.

Next, add in the celery, green onions, dried cranberries and sliced almonds. Give those ingredients a good mix to evenly combine.

In a small bowl, add in the mayonnaise, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, parsley, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Give the dressing a good mix to combine.

Pour the dressing in the large bowl and stir to combine.

Place in an air tight container and refrigerate until you are ready to eat.

Assemble your sandwich using your favorite bread and toppings, serve and enjoy! This chickpea salad should last up to 3 days if stored in an air tight container in the fridge.
