Chairlift Chickpea Salad

Eat this salad with a fork, out of a jar, on the ride home, but it’s also killer stuffed into a pita pocket.

Ingredients

  • 2 15 oz cans chickpeas, drained
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, roughly mash the chickpeas with a potato masher or fork. I like to have most of the chickpeas mashed with some left at least partially whole for added texture. Add the celery, onion, and parsley.
  • In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, dill, salt, and pepper. Mix until thoroughly blended. Add this to the chickpeas and stir until the chickpeas are evenly coated.
  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. The salad will last in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Notes

Variations: Add a scoop of chickpea salad over a mound of greens, add some sliced cucumber and halved cherry tomatoes, and top with your favorite vinaigrette.
To make a chickpea salad sandwich, add a few slices of tomato, a small handful (about 1/4 cup [5 g]) of spinach, and about 1/2 cup [70 g] of chickpea salad to a pita pocket half. Drizzle with roughly 1 tsp of reduced balsamic vinegar. Sandwiches are best the day they’re made.
