Ingredients
- 1 avocado ripe
- 1 3/4 cups chickpeas 1 can, cooked or canned and drained
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice or more to taste, freshly squeezed
- 1 1/2 tablespoons dill freshly chopped
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add the chickpeas to a small mixing bowl and cut the avocado into chunks.Add the avocado and the rest of the ingredients to the mixing bowl and mash together using a potato masher. I like to leave a little texture, but you can make the mixture as chunky or smooth as you like. Add salt and pepper to taste, and more lemon juice if desired.
- Serve the salad on toasted bread, with crackers, scooped on top of salad, or however you might use egg salad. If vegan, make sure any accompaniments are vegan; if gluten free make sure that any accompaniments are gluten free.
