Made with chickpeas (garbanzo beans), this is a wonderful sandwich filling, especially for vegetarians who miss tuna salad. I liked it more oniony so I added a little extra minced onion, but it's still wonderful without it. I enjoyed this the most stuffed in pita bread with slices of ripe plum tomatoes, and also would serve it often on crackers as a snack or appetizer. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) can chickpeas, mashed (garbanzo beans) |
2 tablespoons mayonnaise |
2 teaspoons spicy brown mustard |
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish |
2 green onions, finely chopped |
salt and pepper |
1 tablespoon finely minced yellow onion (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine mashed chickpeas, mayonnaise, mustard, relish, chopped green onions, salt, pepper, and yellow onion (if desired). 2. Mix well. |
