This is one of my favorite go-to dishes that can be used for salads, wraps, and sandwiches. It’s quite easy to throw it together, makes quite a lot of servings, and so yummy.
An easy way to think about it is as a plant-based “chicken salad” using vegan mayo and chickpeas instead of mayonnaise and chicken. I usually use celery and onions for flavor and crunch, but you can adjust as needed. Other options would be cucumbers, peppers, or carrots.
My favorite way to eat this chickpea salad is spread on toast with some sprouts or greens on top. What a perfect lunch! It also goes great on a wrap and my kids like it best between two pieces of bread as a “chicken salad” sandwich. Serve it as you like and enjoy!
