This chickpea salad sandwich recipe is a perfect way for me to show you how to make healthy vegan recipes for lunch in a FREE online cooking class I did on Thursday, September 6th.

You can take this recipe to an ocean-y flavor with mineral-dense sea vegetables, or to a sweet flavor with a handful of raisins.

Chickpea Salad Sandwich Recipe

Prep time: 15 minutes
Makes 4 sandwiches

Avocado Mayo Ingredients

• 1 avocado
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 cup water (approx)
• 1/2 cup sprouts (optional)
• 1 clove garlic (optional), or 1 tsp garlic powder
• pinch salt

Chickpea Salad Ingredients

• 1 14oz can chickpeas
• 1/2 cup celery, diced
• 1/2 cup red pepper, diced
• 1 Tbsp green onion, chopped
• 1/2 cup avocado mayo
• 1 tsp mustard (optional)
• 1 tsp paprika (optional)
• 1 Tbsp dried nori, kelp or other sea vegetable, chopped (optional)
• 2 Tbsp raisins (optional)
• Sea salt, to taste

Sandwich Ingredients

• Whole grain bread, pita or wrap
• Lettuce, spinach or sprouts

Chickpea Salad Sandwich Recipe Directions

1. Puree the avocado mayo ingredients until smooth, adding more water if necessary for consistency.
2. Mash the chickpeas with a fork, potato masher or your hands. Mix in the rest of the chickpea salad ingredients.
3. Spread some of the chickpea salad onto a slice of bread, or into a pita or wrap. Top it with spinach, lettuce or sprouts. It's great as an open-face sandwich with a big leaf of lettuce instead of a 2nd slice of bread.
4. Put the sandwich in a baggie or container, and refrigerate until you eat it.
