INGREDIENTS FOR CURRY CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICHES

• Bread: I like sourdough or a soft white, but this is totally up to you.
• Chickpeas: I use canned chickpeas for convenience. 
• Vegan Mayo: For creamy consistency and bind the mixture together.
• Gala Apple: To compliment the herbs and for a nice sweet bite.
• Herbs and Aromatics: Green onion, red onion, cilantro,  and chives.
• Spices: Curry powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
• Sea Salt: To help bring out all the different flavors.

HOW TO MAKE CURRY CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICHES

1. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, I like to do this to remove any excess salt.
2. Chop the herbs and onions. Roughly chop the cilantro, green onions, and red onion. Finely chop the chives.
3. Chop the apple into ¼ inch bite-sized pieces.
4. Mash the chickpeas. In a shallow dish, add the chickpeas and mash with a fork or potato masher. 
5. Mix it all together. In a separate bowl, add the mashed chickpeas, apples, chopped onions and herbs, mayo, curry powder, garlic powder,  salt, and pepper. Mix until combined. 
6. Sandwich it. Spoon a generous amount of the chickpea salad onto your bread of choice, cover, and enjoy!

CAN I MAKE THESE CURRY CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICHES WITHOUT MAYO?

Absolutely. Feel free to swap out the vegan mayonnaise for a plant-based plain yogurt or about 2 mashed avocados.
