Chickpea Salad

1 Large can (16oz) of chickpeas, drained
1 Large celery stalk, chopped
1/2 cup of sunflower seed kernels
1/4-1/2 cup red onion, chopped
Vegan Mayo
Romaine or butter lettuce
Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions:
Roughly mash the chickpeas (they should still have a chunky texture).  Add the celery, onion and sunflowers to the chickpeas and mix together.  Add as little or as much Mayo as you want (I probably only used 1 1/2-2 tablespoons) to bind it all together.  Salt and pepper to taste.

Vegan Bread (I use Dave's Killer Bread that I can get at my local Costco and it's Made in Oregon!) and place a leaf of lettuce on the top and one on the bottom to keep the bread from getting soggy.

Comments:
I got this recipe from my friend Morgan who made these for a baby shower.  This is simple to make and you can be really creative.  I left out the onions because I don't like raw onions.  But I thought about adding apples or even grapes so next time I will try one of those.

  1. I made this recipe and thought it was quite good. I put dill pickles in it and loved it with the pickles!
