why make this recipe

Chickpea Salad Sandwiches are a delicious and healthy meal choice. They are simple to make, packed with protein, and full of flavor. Using chickpeas as the main ingredient means you get a nutritious boost, and the recipe is easily customizable. Whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, or just looking for a tasty lunch option, this sandwich fits the bill!

how to make Chickpea Salad Sandwiches

Ingredients:

1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas or garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
3 tablespoons honey mustard or Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons snipped fresh dill
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon pepper
12 slices multigrain bread
Optional toppings: Romaine leaves, tomato slices, dill pickle slices, and sweet red pepper rings

Directions:

Place the chickpeas in a large bowl and mash them with a fork or potato masher to your desired consistency.
Stir in the chopped onion, celery, vegan mayonnaise, honey mustard (or Dijon mustard), dill, red wine vinegar, salt, paprika, and pepper.
Spread the chickpea mixture over 6 slices of multigrain bread.
Add your choice of toppings, then place the remaining bread slices on top to form a sandwich.

how to serve Chickpea Salad Sandwiches

Serve these sandwiches on a plate with extra toppings on the side. They are perfect for lunch, picnics, or a light dinner. Enjoy them with a side salad or some crunchy veggies for a complete meal.

how to store Chickpea Salad Sandwiches

If you have leftover chickpea mixture, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. However, it’s best to assemble the sandwiches just before eating to keep the bread fresh. If you make the sandwiches in advance, store them in the fridge, and eat them within 1 day for the best taste.

tips to make Chickpea Salad Sandwiches

Adjust the texture of the chickpeas to your liking. You can mash them completely for a smoother spread or leave some chunks for more texture.
Feel free to add other ingredients like diced pickles, carrots, or avocado for extra flavor.
Use whole grain or gluten-free bread if you prefer.

variation

You can easily turn this recipe into a wrap by using a large tortilla instead of bread. Spread the chickpea salad down the center, add toppings, and roll it up for a tasty and portable snack.
