Unfortunately, the recipe was a dud. Neither of us were very impressed. The texture was off, the flavours were bland, and NOTHING about it said egg salad. I was a little put off, besides hummus, could legumes really taste good in a sandwich?

The black salt, pickles, and dill really mimic the flavours of egg salad. Black salt (affiliate link) has quickly become one of my favourite ingredients for vegan cooking, it has a light sulphur flavour that compliments tofu scrambles, vegan quiches, and of course, chickpea-lentil salad sandwiches. Regular sea salt will work just fine in this recipe, you'll just miss out on some of the "egg-y" flavour.
1.) Finely chopped veggies 2.) Slightly mashed chickpeas 3.) Mashed chickpeas + cooked red lentils 4. + 5.) Combining the lentils, chickpeas, veggies, mayo, black salt, pepper, and lemon juice 6.) After puréeing of the salad and mixing in the nutritional yeast.
Thank you so much for the recipe. Made it today without the black salt, dill, or pickles (none of which are available at my local grocery store). Tasted great even without all those. Can't imagine how much better if only I had those on hand! Will definitely make it again, hopefully with the missing ingredients. And it reminds me of tuna salad!One question. Can this be stored in the freezer? Will it do well when thawed? Thanks again!
I'm always on the hunt for good vegan "tuna" salads and this one is definitely the best I've had so far, and I've tried a few. It's so tasty and authentic. The pickle and lemon juice really give it that pop of flavor. I have to admit it is really difficult not to eat too much of it in one sitting. I added dulse flakes to mine instead of black salt which I don't have on hand at the moment. Thanks for an easy, great recipe Brittany ?
To mimic the texture of tuna, I pulse chickpeas with hearts of palm in a food processor. Chickpeas bring heartiness, while the hearts of palm bring a buttery flakiness. Mix with a few vegan superstar ingredients and it truly tastes just like tuna salad but is 100% vegan.
This simple chickpea salad recipe combines chickpeas with lentils and spinach for a hearty, nutrient-dense, protein-packed, fiber-rich simple vegan salad.

For a plant-based take on a classic, this chickpea tuna salad may not taste exactly like tuna. However, it has just enough of the same mouth-feel and texture to make an excellent protein-packed plant-based alternative. Enjoy this chickpea tuna in sandwiches, wraps, lettuce cups, and more!
But how to have that yummy juicy tuna sandwich, but without the sad cruelty of eating an endangered species? Well, that is where my chickpea 'tuna' sandwich filler comes in. We love to call this sandwich 'Chickpea of the Sea' instead of chickpea tuna, mostly because it sounds cute!
Ok- So the texture isn't quite the same, but the pleasing give when you munch, the mayo, crunch of a pickle and the seasoning is all spot on. And you don't have to feel any guilt. Just pure, yummy sandwich joy. I've trialed this vegan chickpea tuna sandwich filler on my toughest critic- The Gardener, my omni partner, and he gave it two thumbs up. I always know if a recipe is a winner if he likes it.
This recipe is just for the vegan chickpea tuna sandwich filler and not for the other bits of the sandwich. I'm assuming you know what you like in a sarnie! Personally I like some crunch, so radishes are in. I also love some green stuff. In my case some rocket and any herbs that I have lying around. Also some kind of tomato is yummy. Add some extra chilli sauce if you like. It's your sammy, do what you want. Make it delicious.

Chickpea salad sandwiches are for people who like everything about tuna sandwiches except for the tuna. ? Or they are just for people who like tasty sandwiches. Especially sandwiches that taste even better with some sprouts, juicy slices of tomato, and, of course, pickles. My husband is shuddering right about now. So these are also for him, just without pickles (what is wrong with him?).

With this curried chickpea salad recipe, you have a simple, fast, meatless way to satisfy your craving for tuna or curried chicken salad. Instead of the raisins you might find in a standard curried salad, we added fresh red bell pepper and red onion for some vegetal sweetness and a bit of bite. You can eat this salad as is, but we love it spread on some toasted bread and topped with butter lettuce and juicy tomato slices.
Those who say that good things take time have clearly never grilled a tuna steak. Once the grill is preheated, tuna steaks take only around 5 minutes to grill. Since the grilled scallion sauce adds a lot of flavor, you can serve these over a simple arugula salad or some brown rice.
Canned tuna is an easy protein to add to any meal. Keep in mind that many cans of tuna sneak in 2 servings, and can be packed in water or oil (still a healthy option, but more dense). To help manage your orange food intake, it can be helpful to substitute plain, greek yogurt or mashed avocado for mayo when whipping up your favorite tuna sandwich.
