Instructions
- Add the chickpeas to a fine mesh strainer or colander and rinse under cool running water. Set them aside until they are completely dry.
- Add the vegan mayonnaise, hummus, mustard, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to a large bowl and whisk until well combined.
- Once the chickpeas are dried, add them to the bowl and toss until well coated in the mayo-mustard mixture. Using a potato masher, mash the chickpeas until your desired consistency is reached.
- Add the toasted pecans, grapes, celery, and dill. Mix everything together until just combined.
- Serve on toasted bread with greens for a sandwich, with crackers or as a lettuce wrap. Enjoy!
Notes
- Nutrition facts are calculated without any bread, crackers, or toppings.
- How to prep ahead of time: This entire recipe can be made a day before serving and kept in the fridge.
- How to store: Keep leftover chickpea salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
- How to freeze: While you can freeze chickpea salad for up 6 months, the texture will be changed upon thawing if you included the grapes. Excess moisture will make the salad runny.
