Mock Tuna Salad Sandwich

                      



This is another very versatile recipe. Tuna salad has always been a favorite of mine, and missing out on my tuna salad sandwiches made me feel like this:


                                    


So I threw this bad boy together. I make pretty large batches of stuff because Deb will undoubtedly get into it, and I simply love leftovers so that's really all there is to that. Also you can definitely mix up your spices in this. When I'm on an Indian food kick I'll add turmeric, ginger, curry, tamarind paste, or any number of spice combos to give it a new spin.


Ingredients:

2 cans of chickpeas (garbanzo beans)

1/2 medium red onion

1/3 avocado

2.5 tbsp Vegenaise

1 tsp dill

1 tsp ground mustard

splash of rice vinegar

salt and pepper to taste 

Directions:

• Put chickpeas, avocado, and onion into food processor and process until everything is combined 
• Transfer to bowl and add Vegenaise 
• Add splash of vinegar
• Add spices
• Mix together

Final product will look something like this:

                      
Voila!


I prefer to serve this on an open face slice of whole grain bread with sliced tomato and baby kale. But this can be served on top of salad or as a side dish. Yesterday I had it like a regular sandwich because I felt like I needed the bread to fill me up. My Focus T25 workouts have been kicking my butt and I'm feeling hungrier than usual!
