Vegetarian "Tuna" (chickpea) Salad*
If you know me at all, you know that I am a huge tuna gal. I decided to give the vegetarian version of tuna a try and I will say.. It did not disappoint! I could even go further to say that it may be as good as regular tuna?? I don’t know, but it was deeelish and hit the spot. Whether you are vegetarian or not I definitely recommend you try this recipe out.
*Inspired by Bonberi
2 Easy Steps:
Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Mash them up in a bowl with a fork or potato masher.
Add all other ingredients and continue to mash until a tuna-like texture forms. I left some garbanzo pieces more whole for varying texture.
What you will need:
1 can chickpea/garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
2 tbsp mayo
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp parsley, chopped
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/4 red onion, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
