PF Kitchen: Heart Healthy Chick salad

 

Ingredients

-1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained + rinsed

-3 stalks green onion

-2 stalks celery

-1/4 cup chopped shredded carrots

-1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper

-1/4 cup store bought or homemade mayonnaise (vegan or regular)

-1-2 tsp dijon mustard

-1 tsp yellow mustard

-1/8 tsp dried dill (or fresh, to taste)

-1/8 tsp salt

-1/8 tsp pepper

 

Optional but if you want extra kick try adding these ingredients:

-1/4 cup finely chopped dill pickle

-3 TBSP unsalted roasted sunflower seeds

-2 TBSP fresh chopped basil, plus extra to taste

 

 

 

Directions

 

  1. Drain and rinse your chickpeas and add them to a large bowl. Mash with a potato masher until texture appears flaked, almost like tuna salad. I use both a potato masher and follow up with a fork to make sure every chickpea is deliciously smashed. You could also use a food processor and skip the arm workout!

  2. Chop your green onion, celery, shredded carrots, pepper, and pickles.

  3. Add to the bowl with your chickpeas, then add mayo, Dijon, yellow mustard, dill, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat.

  4. Fold in sunflower seeds and basil (as much or as little as you'd like) and adjust any ingredients to taste.

  5. Pile high on bread with all your sandwich fixings or enjoy as a wrap, with crackers, on a salad, or simply dive into the bowl spoon-first - anything goes!
