Curried Chickpea Salad

I really love this chickpea salad. It comes together quickly and tastes delicious. I make it often for a quick, healthy lunch that's full of fiber. Try it as a sandwich or wrap for dinner served alongside chips or fries, and a smoothie or a side salad. Enjoy! 

15 oz can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed

3 Tbl vegan mayo (I like Follow Your Heart) OR regular mayo

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

2 tsp curry powder (add another tsp if you really like that strong curry flavor)

2 Tbl hot sauce (I like Hank's)

2 tsp lemon juice

1 tsp Dijon mustard

1/3 cup chopped pickled onion (picture below)

2 dates, pitted and chopped

salt & pepper, to taste

Directions: 

Pour chickpeas into a large mixing bowl. Use a potato masher to mash them gently - maybe about half mashed, half whole. In a smaller bowl combine mayo through Dijon. Mix well then add to the mashed chickpeas. Stir to combine. Add the chopped pickled onions and chopped dates. 

    Serve this on sliced bread as a sandwich, in a tortilla as a wrap, scooped on top of a salad, or eat it straight from the bowl.
Enjoy!
