“I swapped chickpeas for tuna in this sandwich, and it’s the perfect vegetarian take on a classic tuna salad. Have you ever tried using chickpeas as a tuna replacement?”

Ingredients:
• 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise (or vegan mayo)
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
• 1/4 cup diced celery
• 1/4 cup diced red onion
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Bread slices (whole wheat, gluten-free, or your choice)
• Optional toppings: Lettuce, tomato, pickles

Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, mash the chickpeas with a fork or potato masher, leaving some chickpeas whole for texture.
2. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, celery, red onion, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
3. Spread the chickpea mixture onto a slice of bread, then top with lettuce, tomato, and pickles, if desired.
4. Place the second slice of bread on top and serve immediately.

  • Total: Around 7-9 points, depending on the specific ingredients and quantities used.
