If you haven't had a traditional tuna salad sandwich in 15 years like me, this will bring back some fishy memories!
If you feel this needs to remind you more of a tuna salad, you can add dehydrated sea veggies to give it a more ocean-y flavor.
Better yet - if you are a meat eater and having company, make this for a loved one who is on a plant based diet. Hand them the recipe first so they don't get too suspicious!
Chickpea of the Sea Salad
By Sharon Oliver
1 can chickpeas, drained & pulsed in the food processor to resemble flaked tuna
1/3 cup chopped celery
1/3 cup chopped sweet or green onions
1/4 cup sweet pickle relish
1/4 cup plant based oil-free mayo (I use and love the cashew tofu mayo from Fat Free Vegan)
1 tbs lemon juice, or more to taste
1 tsp dried dill
salt & pepper to taste
Gently mix ingredients together in a bowl. Enjoy plain or as a sandwich filling!
