• Place the chickpeas in a mixing bowl and mash with a fork, leaving only a few beans whole.

CHICKEN OF THE PEA (VEGAN TUNA)

Season with paprika, nori, seafood seasoning, hot sauce, cayenne pepper, and dill. Mix thoroughly. Refrigerate until serving.

CREAMED TUNA OR CHICKEN WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Drain tuna or chop chicken finely.
• Bring chicken stock (and optional mushrooms if desired), to a boil. Add celery seed and thyme.
• Use a fork or a whisk to combine cornstarch with cold milk. Adjust amount according to whether you want a thicker or thinner sauce. Add to boiling stock, reduce heat, and stir until the sauce simmers gently.
• Add tuna/chicken, peas, and sherry.
• Heat through and season to taste with salt and fresh-ground black pepper.
• Remove from heat. Let sit, keeping warm, for 5 minutes to blend flavors.
• Serve over the starch of your choice -- rice, toast points, noodles, cornbread (I suggest recipe Recipe #277295 ), biscuits, etc.
• Note -- if you have no homemade chicken stock I suggest using a good soup base (Tones brand is available in Sam's Club). Both bullion cubes and canned chicken broth are inferior substitutes for real stock and a dish this simple depends on the quality of the ingredients for good flavor.
• Tip -- if you enjoy tuna casserole but have give it up because of the salt in the mushroom soup try using a suitable quantity of this recipe (with or without the peas), as a substitute for the diluted soup.

VEGAN CHICKPEA "TUNA"

Steps:

• 1. Drain Chickpeas and add them to a mixing bowl and start mashing with a fork or masher.
• 2. Add in other ingredients and mash.
• 3. This process can take a few minutes. If you want it thicker, you can leave it half-mashed so that the chickpeas are somewhat intact. Or if you want more of a tuna consistency, mash until you get a smoother texture.
• 4. Once you're happy with your desired vegan "Tuna" simply serve it on sourdough bread, in a sandwich, or in a salad.
