Cook this recipe
- canned chickpeas-2 cans
- dill pickles-1/2 cup
- celery-1/2 cup
- vegan mayonnaise-1/3 cup
- fresh dill-2 tablespoons
- Dijon mustard-1 tablespoon
- lemon juice-1 tablespoon
- garlic powder-1/2 teaspoon
- fine salt-1/4 teaspoon
- ground black pepper-1/4 teaspoon
- whole wheat sandwich bread-8 slices
Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then finely chop the pickles, celery, and fresh dill as needed.
Keep fingers tucked and the knife blade angled away while finely chopping the pickles, celery, and dill.
Add the chickpeas to a medium bowl and mash with a fork until mostly broken down, leaving some chunky texture.
Stir in the vegan mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until creamy and evenly mixed.
Fold in the chopped pickles, diced celery, and fresh dill until the salad is well combined.
Divide the chickpea salad among 4 slices of whole wheat bread, top with the remaining bread, and press gently to form 4 sandwiches.
Slice the sandwiches in half and serve right away for the best texture.
Use a stable cutting board and keep fingers clear of the knife while slicing the sandwiches.
