Notes

Mash the chickpeas to your preferred texture with a fork, potato masher, or food processor. I like to keep mine a bit chunkier for a sandwich, otherwise, the whole sandwich can seem too soft.
 
  • Want it spicy? Add some hot sauce or red pepper flakes to the avocado chickpea salad.
  • Don't like these herbs? Use your favorite herbs such as dill, basil, or mint.
Use this salad the day you make it as it can turn brown from the avocado.
