Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the avocado flesh, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Use a fork to mash it together, until creamy.
- Add in the drained chickpeas, red onion, celery, and fresh dill. Stir well, mashing some of the chickpeas as you go, until it reaches your desired texture. Taste the chickpea filling and adjust any seasoning to taste.
- Serve the chickpea salad right away as a sandwich filling or in a lettuce wrap. For a sandwich, serve it on whole-grain bread with sliced tomatoes, red onion, and lettuce, or use any toppings you have on hand. It tastes remarkably like an egg salad sandwich.
- Leftover chickpea salad can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days. It will brown slightly over time, because of the avocado, but it still tastes good!
