Chickpea Avocado Sandwich – This chickpea avocado sandwich recipe is so simple to make and the perfect meal prep recipe! Avocado and chickpeas are the classic tuna salad or chicken salad alternative since they produce a similar texture when crushed, and the avocado leaves it creamy.
A few stalks of celery and green onion give this salad ton of taste and crunch, along with feelings of garlic, dill, cilantro, and lime!
Simple High-Protein Chickpea Sandwich
Whether you are going on a rigorous hike or relaxing in the beach, this recipe is the best energy food to keep you full.

Making Healthy Chickpea Salad
The very best aspect of the recipe is that it is one-pot, and there’s absolutely no cooking required!
All you have to do is squish the ingredients and assemble your sandwich! I’ve discovered that using a potato masher makes this recipe much simpler, though you can use a fork if that is all you’ve got, it will just take a bit more time to get everything to come together.
To make this recipe, then rinse your canned chickpeas completely to eliminate the can liquid, and throw all of the filling ingredients into a big bowl. Squish down until everything is creamy and incorporated — I prefer to leave a few complete chickpeas for some feel.
Next, toast your bread and begin to assemble. The chickpea avocado salad acts as a type of glue for carrying the toppings in place! I used spinach, arugula, red onion, and tomato on top!
This recipe can be regarded as glorified guacamole, however it is a complete meal with healthy carbohydrates, protein, and carbohydrates! It could be great at a burrito for breakfast, on bread for lunch, stuffed into a baked potato, or eaten with a fork! I used Dave’s Killer Bread for this recipe (not sponsored), and it was a delicious combination.
