CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICHES WITH POTATO CHIPS & PICKLES

Steps:

• Add the chickpeas, 1/4 cup chopped pickles, onion, mayonnaise, mustard, celery salt if using, kosher salt, and black pepper to a small bowl. Using a fork or potato masher, smash the chickpeas while mixing and mashing the ingredients together. You're not looking for hummus-consistency; just a nice, spreadable, chunky salad will do.
• Divide filling between two slices of bread (you may have enough to make more sandwiches, depending on your preference and the size of your bread). Spread to within about 1/2 inch of the edge of the bread. Add lettuce if using, pickle slices, and potato chips. Top with remaining bread. Smush down a bit, cut in half, and serve.

RANCH CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Rinse the red onion under cold water; transfer to a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice and let stand 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the chickpeas, ranch dressing, a pinch of salt and a generous grinding of pepper in a large bowl. Smash together with a potato masher or sturdy fork until the chickpeas are in small pieces. Add the red onion, celery, parsley, dill, 1 teaspoon lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste; stir to combine.
• Lay out 4 slices of bread and top each with 1 or 2 lettuce leaves. Spread the chickpea salad (about 1/2 cup per sandwich) in an even layer on top. Season the avocado slices lightly with salt and pepper and drizzle with the remaining 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Divide the avocado among the sandwiches and top each with a second piece of bread. Serve the sandwiches with chips and pickles.
