Easy Chickpea Salad Sandwich
Looking for healthy and easy lunch recipes? This delicious chickpea salad sandwich is essentially a vegetarian chicken salad sandwich using chickpeas!
Why is finding healthy and easy lunch recipes so hard? Alex and I like to eat very, very simple at breakfast and lunch, so that we can spend our time and energy on dinner recipes. But it’s still hard to find recipes that are simple, filling and easy to bring to work. One of our favorite easy lunch recipes ever is this chickpea salad sandwich. It’s basically a vegetarian chicken salad sandwich, but uses chickpeas instead of chicken! It’s seriously so tasty that we find ourselves making it often. And our toddler Larson is a huge fan: the other day when we made it he grabbed a fork and started eating it out of the bowl! Keep reading for our Chickpea Salad Sandwich recipe.

This chickpea salad sandwich is truly easy to make: and we’re not just saying that. It takes just 10 minutes to whip up the chickpea salad and throw it onto a sandwich. The only cutting involved is thinly slicing some celery and green onions. Mix that up with some chickpeas, mashed with a fork, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and celery seed, and you’ve got a fresh, refreshing chickpea salad.
One note: you can use canned or cooked chickpeas for this chickpea salad sandwich. Our preference is canned chickpeas (see below), but both work. Here’s our Pressure Cooker chickpeas method if you happen to have an Instant Pot. If you don’t, use our How to Cook Dried Beans in a Dutch Oven (which includes chickpeas / garbanzo beans). However, if you do use canned chickpeas in this recipe, remember a few things
Canned chickpeas have a bit of salt added, so you’ll want to flavor with a few pinches of kosher salt before using. The texture of chickpeas cooked at home can be drier than canned, so you may have to add a bit more mayonnaise to the chickpea salad. Because of this, we prefer making it with canned chickpeas. However, we’ve made it many times with cooked chickpeas too.
Here, we’ve kept the toppings pretty minimal for this chickpea salad sandwich. We’ve used spring greens for some texture. A fun trick that we’ve used is spreading hummus onto the bread slices before assembling the sandwich. We happened to have it on hand and it made the sandwich even more delicious! Of course you could use mayonnaise, or also omit it.
You can use any toppings you like for this chickpea salad sandwich; here are a few that might be fun to get your wheels turning!
1-Hour Quick Pickled Onions Shredded carrots (using a a Handheld Julienne Shredder is helpful) Sprouts or microgreens Fresh tomatoes Spicy mayo (mix a drizzle of hot sauce into mayo) Potato chips (if you’re into the crunchy sandwich type of thing)

Description
Looking for healthy and easy lunch recipes? This delicious chickpea salad sandwich features a vegetarian chicken salad using chickpeas!
Ingredients
15 ounce can chickpeas or 1 1/2 cups cooked chickpeas*
1 stalk celery
3 green onions
1 to 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (vegan if desired)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon celery seed
Kosher salt & fresh ground pepper
4 slices bread
Lettuce, spring green mix, or sprouts
Hummus, optional
Instructions
Thinly slice the celery (if it’s a large stalk, cut in half lengthwise first) and the green onions.
Drain and rinse the chickpeas. In a medium bowl, smash the chickpeas with a fork.
Combine the chickpeas with the chopped celery and green onions, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and celery seed. Add about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, depending on your chickpea brand and taste preferences, and fresh ground pepper to taste. Taste and salt until the flavor pops! If the salad is dry, add more mayonnaise (cooked chickpeas have a drier texture than canned).
Assemble the chickpea salad sandwich: If desired, spread the bread with hummus (this amps it up a bit but not required). Top the sandwich with lettuce or greens and chickpea spread.
Notes
*If using cooked chickpeas, remember that canned chickpeas have a bit of salt added, so you’ll want to flavor with a few pinches of kosher salt before using. Also the texture of chickpeas cooked at home can be drier than canned, so you may have to add a bit more mayonnaise. Because of this, we prefer making this chickpea salad with canned chickpeas, but we’ve absolutely made it with cooked chickpeas too! Here’s our Pressure Cooker chickpeas method: we make them all the time.
