Fake Tuna


A nice protein alternative, a tuna-like tasty food can be made from mashed chickpeas.

Smash one can of chickpeas (drained) in bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup red onion, 1/4 cup pickle, salt, pepper, a few splashes of pickle juice, at least 2 tbs of vegan mayo (I prefer Nayonaise). Add any optional add-ins that would put in regular tuna; celery, cayenne, mustard, etc.
Now you have a good sandwich filler or pasta casserole ingredient.
Thought I made this up but I then found it in many internet locations like here.

  1. I can't go on enough about how much I love chickpea salad. And it's so easy. I think we should have a blind taste test to see whose version of it is better. It's on!
