This Vegan Chickpea Salad Sandwich is a perfect choice for a weekday meal. The combination of chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and crunchy celery makes this salad delicious!
Place the chickpeas in a medium bowl and top with water. Rub the chickpeas gently with your hands, and remove the skins off the top of the water. Drain
In a large bowl, add the tahini, lemon juice, garlic powder, kosher salt & pepper. Mix until all ingredients are combined.
Add the chickpeas and mash with a fork or potato masher until the beans reach the desired consistency; chunky or smooth.
Add the rest of the ingredients and mix in until thoroughly combined. Taste and add more salt & pepper if needed.
To assemble the sandwich, spread mayonnaise on the bottom slice of bread, then top with the lettuce, chickpeas salad, sliced tomatoes, avocado and alfalfa sprouts.
