I used to LOVE tuna salad before going vegan. It was one of my go-to orders at cafes & delis. Luckily, we live in an age where anything can be made vegan. Obviously, it’s not *exactly* like tuna salad, but it’s pretty damn good and tastes quite similar to the regular version thanks to ingredients like celery, tahini, and nori.
I love using this recipe for for salads, sandwiches, wraps, pasta, sushi, and more.
INGREDIENTS (serves 2):
- 1 cup chickpeas
- 1 stock celery, chopped
- 4 cherry tomatoes, chopped
- 1 tbsp chopped onion
- 1 tbsp chopped pickles
- 1 nori sheet, torn into small pieces
- 1 tsp hot sauce (optional)
- 1 tbsp tahini
- 2 tsp mustard
- 1 lemon wedge
METHOD:
- Warm up chickpeas in microwave for a few seconds until warm
- Mash chickpeas with fork in bowl
- Add in rest of ingredients & mix well
NOTES:
- If you don’t have chickpeas, you can use a couple tablespoons of hummus instead
- You can probably just do this whole thing in a food processor, I just didn’t because I don’t have one :)
- Other add-ins: sesame seeds, cumin, kimchi, other spices




Looks amazing!!!!!
