Ingredients
Scale
- 1 avocado – pit removed and scooped from peel
- 2 scallions roughly chopped
- 1 large handful of parsley
- 2 oz feta cheese
- 1 small lemon juiced – about 2 Tbs
- 15 oz can of chickpeas
- 2 stalks of celery – diced
- Bread for sandwiches – I used toasted sour dough
- Cucumber slices and fresh spinach to add to the sandwich as topping.
Instructions
- In a food processor, whirl together avocado, scallion, parsley, feta and lemon. I like mine to be fairly chunky but you can process for a smoother blend if you want.
- Add avocado mixture to a bowl.
- Add diced celery to the bowl.
- Drain and rinse chickpeas. Add chickpeas to a plastic zip lock bag. Smash chickpeas up so about half are smashed and half are whole – I just put the bag on the counter and whacked it with the palm of my hand a few times.
- Add smashed chickpeas to bowl with avocado mixture and celery. If you’re planning on picking out any of the loose chickpeas skins this is the time – before you mix it – just pick out the worst offenders if they are bothering you.
- Stir everything together.
- Serve on bread – I used toasted sour dough and topped it with slices of cucumber and some fresh spinach.
