Ingredients

  • 2 cans 15.5 oz. chickpeas, drained
  • 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 large stalk celery minced
  • 2 Tbsp. red onions minced
  • 3 tsp. dill chopped
  • 1 tsp. garlic minced
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. pepper
  • ¾ cup vegan mayonnaise
  • ½ tsp. Dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Drain chickpeas and place in large mixing bowl. Mash with fork until nearly smooth.*
  • Add lemon juice, celery, onions, dill, garlic, salt and pepper. Stir until mixed well.
  • Fold in mayonnaise and mustard until everything is evenly mixed.
  • Serve on bread with lettuce, tomato, avocado and more mayonnaise if desired.

Notes

*This is a matter of preference. I enjoy a little bit of a rough texture, but you can mash the chickpeas to whatever consistency works best for you.
This recipe is gluten-free, but make sure the bread you use is also gluten-free if you’re making a sandwich.
