A delicious chickpea 'tuna' sandwich that's perfect for meal prep. Made with mashed chickpeas, red onion, pickles, fresh dill, and topped with a creamy sauce of tofu and cashews. This recipe yields about 4 sandwiches.
1: Dice the red onion, finely chop the pickles and chop the fresh dill.
2: Drain and rinse the can of chickpeas, then add to a shallow bowl and roughly mash the chickpeas with a fork. Add in the red onion, pickles, and dill.
3: To a blender, add the tofu, cashews, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic clove, a pinch of salt, and water. Blend until smooth and creamy.
4: Pour most of the sauce into the chickpea mixture (saving just a couple spoonfuls to use as sauce in your sandwich) and mix well.
5: Slice the tomato(es) and wash your greens.
6: Assemble the sandwiches with a bit of the creamy sauce, greens, tomato slices, and a few heaping tablespoons of the chickpea mixture. Enjoy right away or lightly toast the sandwich in a frying pan.
