You can use this scrumptious Chick Pea Salad just as you would a traditional Chicken Salad recipe. I love to use Veganaise instead of regular mayo and if I’m feeling adventurous I throw in a few handfuls of dried cranberries.
- 2 cans (drained and rinsed) or 4 cups slightly chopped Chick Peas
- 1 cup chopped celery
- 1 cup thinly sliced green onions
- 2 T. freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2/3 cup salad dressing or one avocado, mashed
- 1/3 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 1 T. brown or regular mustard
- 1/4 t. black pepper
- 1/4 t. garlic salt
In a mixing bowl combine Chick Peas, celery, green onions, lemon juice, and black pepper. Stir in Veganaise or mashed avocado, green pepper and mustard.
Cover. Chilling for an hour or so is recommended, but you don’t have to wait to enjoy this delicious Salad.
Looks beautiful served on a bed of salad greens or sprouts. Also works great as a sandwich filling.
