Ideal for a quick snack or sdanwich filler, this Chickpea Tuna recipe only takes 5 minutes to make.

Provided by Jase Q

Categories     Appetizer     Brunch     Salad     Snack

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

15 oz Chickpeas (Canned or fresh)
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
.25 cup Vegan Mayo
.5 tbsp Dijon Mustard
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
.5 tsp Salt
.5 tsp Garlic Powder
.5 tsp Onion Powder
.25 cup Diced Onion

1 sheet Nori Sheet

Steps:

  • 1. Drain Chickpeas and add them to a mixing bowl and start mashing with a fork or masher.

  • Add all the ingredients into the food processor and pulse a few times until combined. You don’t want it too mushy but you want to break down the chickpeas and incorporate all the ingredients, so about 5 pulses (depending on your food processor - see video for reference).
  • Scrape down with your spatula and taste and adjust seasonings to your liking, pulsing again like once or twice to combine.
  • Serve in a lettuce wrap, or in a sandwich as above, or on crackers or however you desire. If you're making a sandwich, I like to serve it on toasted bread with lettuce, onions and tomatoes. Enjoy!

  • Drain chickpeas but reserve 1/4 cup liquid from can. Add chickpeas and reserved liquid to a large bowl.
  • Mash with a potato masher, pressing firmly and using a rocking motion to mash chickpeas. Then use a fork to mash chickpeas more finely.Tip: This step can take about 8 minutes to get a good mash. It's worth taking the extra time to make sure the chickpeas are mashed thoroughly. The skins separating from the mashed chickpeas is what gives it a "tuna fish" type of texture.
  • Optional: Lightly toast bread. Place enough lettuce to cover a slice of bread. Smear a portion of chickpea tuna salad over lettuce. Top with bread.
