First of all, no this does not taste like chicken. But, on the upside, this is way healthier! The consistency is great for sandwiches and I really enjoyed my sandwich. Tom? Well, he ate it, but didn't ask for more. I ate it as a sandwich, on whole grain crackers, mixed with pasta and some Kalamata olives, and I even ate the last bit of it on a spoon. Top it with extra veggies - like a slice of tomato, some nutrient-rich greens, and whatever you like!
Ingredients:
  • 1 (15-ounce/425 grams) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed (click to use dried chickpeas)
  • ​2 stalks celery, finely chopped
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped dill pickle
  • 3 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh dill (optional)
  • 1 1/2 to 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, to taste
  • 1/4teaspoon fine sea salt, or to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
  1. In a large bowl, mash the chickpeas with a potato masher until flaked in texture.
  2. Stir in the celery, green onions, pickles, vegan mayonnaise, and garlic until combined.
  3. Stir in the mustard and dill, and season with the lemon juice, salt, and pepper, adjusting the quantities to taste.
  4. ​Serve with toasted bread, on crackers, wraps, or on top of a basic leafy green salad. Or just enjoy it all on its own!

    Clean and simple eating is my goal. I love to cook and enjoy trying new recipes. All recipes included cover several diet types...raw vegan, vegan, vegetarian, low carb, and ketogenic. I have tried to remember to tag the recipes appropriately, but it is what it is.

    ​Happy 'simple' eating!
