Healthy Recipes Healthy Ingredient Recipes Healthy Bean Recipes Healthy Chickpea Recipes Chickpea Salad Sandwich 4.8 (4) 3 Reviews This vegan chickpea salad sandwich is lemony, bright and surprisingly delicious. It's got all the flavors of a classic tuna salad sandwich—dill, lemon and a bit of garlic—but with chickpeas instead to add a vegan source of protein and a healthy boost of fiber. Celery brings a nice crunch. By Anna Theoktisto Anna Theoktisto Instagram Website Anna Theoktisto is a recipe tester and developer who's been working in Dotdash Meredith test kitchens since 2017.
