Chickpea "Tuna" Salad

This is one of my favorite things to have for lunch. I eat it on toast, rice cakes, and crackers. If you love tuna salad you will really like this dish. This recipe will yield 2-3 servings.
  • 15 oz can of chickpeas, drained (or 1.5 cups if you make your own)
  • 4 stalks of celery
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion or green onion
  • 3 Tbsp dill pickle relish
  • 1 tsp onion flakes (or 1/2 tsp onion powder)
  • 1 Tbsp tamari
  • 2-3 Tbsp vegan mayo
  • 2 tsp mustard of choice
  • 2 tsp sesame seeds
  • Salt & pepper to taste
 
Mash the chickpeas with a potato masher or fork (alternatively, you can pulse them in the food processor being careful not to puree-I prefer this method). Add all the other ingredients and mix well. Taste, adding more of what you like (mayo/mustard/salt/pepper/kelp/etc). Eat with something crunchy!
