Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cans organic chickpeas 26 total oz
  • 4 oz cashew yogurt (Elissa recommends Forager’s)
  • 1/3 cup organic Tahini
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • 1 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup parsley de-stemmed and chopped up
  • 1/4 cup dill chopped
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • sea salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Mash the chickpeas with a potato masher or fork. You can also blitz them in a blender or food processor, but you don’t want them to be too blended. We want the same texture as tuna salad, after all!
  • Mix all of the ingredients into a large bowl, starting with the chickpeas, yogurt, tahini, lemon, cumin, mustard, and salt and pepper. Once that is combined, add in the celery, parsley, and dill.
  • Serve as a wrap in a big piece of butter lettuce, in some sourdough, or on crackers!
