BEST VEGAN TUNA SALAD EVER | Chickpea Tuna Salad Sandwich | Chickpea Tuna

Keep your kitchen cool and enjoy a quick lunch with this vegan chickpea "tuna" salad. It's an easy and satisfying no-cook recipe that's perfect for summer. You'll enjoy the same basic flavor of a traditional tuna salad but with a few simple changes that transform it into a light vegan meal.

This cold salad uses canned chickpeas in place of the tuna and is pureed to a similar consistency. Vegenaise replaces the typical mayonnaise making the dish egg-free as well. Mix in the flavor combination of celery dill onion parsley and relish and you have a tasty salad in minutes. There are also lots of ways to vary the flavors especially since there is no tuna flavor to limit the possibilities.

Enjoy the salad for lunch on bread or lettuce or combine the two add a slice of tomato and use spicy mustard or Vegenaise as a spread. Serve with crackers as a starter or snack or take it with you on a picnic.
