Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Makes 3 sandwiches
  • 1 can chickpeas
  • 1 tbsp. Vegenaise
  • ¼ cup buffalo hot sauce I used Franks red hot

Instructions

Instructions

  • In a food processor, add in chickpeas, mayo, hot sauce, salt and pepper and process for 5-10 sec - just until the chickpeas are slightly mashed. Don’t over process or you’ll end up with a spicy hummus… which is also delish, but a snack for another day!
  • Toss in the celery and process for another couple of seconds just until the celery is combined but still chunky.
  • On toasted or untoasted sliced pumpernickel bread, layer on your lettuce, 2 scoops of the buffalo chickpea salad and pickles.
  • Slice in half and wrap in parchment paper for a delicious, healthy lunch.

Notes

Notes: You can store any leftover buffalo chickpea salad in an airtight container in the fridge for 5 days.
