Vegan Chickpea Salad Sandwich
Each week we remind ourselves that we need to add more legumes to our diet. We usually add beans to our salad or corn to our tortillas and pasta, but we need more. A speedy recipe that is perfect for a healthy-ish snack or lunch on the go. So we came up with a super simple chickpea and bean salad that is delicious and perfect for sandwiches and tortillas, wraps, and burgers. This recipe is a fun and colorful way to incorporate more veggies and legumes. This Chickpea and Bean Sandwich is one of those “guilt-free,” feel-good sandwiches. Rich in flavor, simple to make, easy to whip up, and the Planet of Plants sauce with turmeric, chives, and ginger elevates it beautifully, along with the vegan mayo. So good, we love it!
