Tips for this recipe:

  • Mash chickpeas until you reach your desired consistency. We prefer to leave a few whole chickpeas so that the mixture isn’t completely mashed, but you do you!
  • Add more or less mayo and mustard depending on your preference. The amount of these two ingredients that you add really can change the flavor of the sandwich.
  • You could easily substitute the chickpeas for shredded chicken if you wanted a meatier meal.
