CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICHES



Chickpea Salad Sandwiches image

Chickpeas are high in fiber and protein, so they're the perfect snack. I like the taste of them because they remind me a little bit of black-eyed peas, which I love! Combine them with avocado, a little mayo, and a dash of lime juice, and you've got a light-tasting summer salad that will really fill you up. Yum!

CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICH



Chickpea Salad Sandwich image

This quick recipe makes simple canned chickpeas into a bold and hearty vegetarian meal. Chickpeas are mashed in a creamy, rich lemon-tahini dressing, then mixed with crunchy celery and scallions for fresh bite. Earthy alfalfa sprouts, crisp lettuce, creamy avocado and sweet tomatoes bring contrasting textures and flavors to the sandwich. The chickpea salad can be made a few hours ahead and kept refrigerated. Any leftover salad makes a tasty dip served with tortilla chips or crackers. For a vegan alternative, omit the cheese for sandwiches that still boast layers of flavor.

Tips:

  • Choosing the right chickpeas: For the best texture and flavor, use dried chickpeas that have been soaked and cooked until tender. Canned chickpeas can also be used, but they may be slightly softer.
  • Draining and rinsing the chickpeas: Be sure to drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly before using them in the salad. This will help to remove any excess starch and make the salad less watery.
  • Chopping the vegetables: For a more even distribution of flavors and textures, chop the vegetables into small, uniform pieces.
  • Dressing the salad: Use a light and flavorful dressing, such as a vinaigrette or lemon-tahini dressing. Avoid using heavy dressings, as they can overwhelm the delicate flavors of the chickpeas and vegetables.
  • Seasoning the salad: Be sure to season the salad to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as cumin or paprika, to taste.
  • Chilling the salad: For the best flavor, chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serving the salad: Serve the salad on a bed of lettuce or other greens. You can also serve it in a pita pocket or on a roll.

Conclusion:

With its combination of protein-packed chickpeas, fresh vegetables, and flavorful dressing, this chickpea salad sandwich is a delicious and satisfying meal. It's perfect for lunch or dinner, and it can be easily packed for a picnic or potluck. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful sandwich, give this chickpea salad sandwich a try!
