If A Recipe Is That Good, You Share It.

If a recipe is that good, you share it. It's plain and simple.

Hey all,

Did you make/enjoy those noodle bowls? I meant to say that I had made and cooked seitan and added it so I had something meaty in there. Anyway. This week was a recipe that I'd gotten from a friend after instantly falling in love with the dish. I never missed meat when I gave it up, but I did miss certain flavors and styles of foods... So, I learned to create things similar and have found that I enjoy them even more than when there was meat in there!

This week I made a Tuna/Chicken salad-esque delight out of chickpeas, it's delicious and healthy all at once, and I cannot get enough of it. It's vegan, gluten free, and packed full of flavor.

Here's how I made it:

1. Drain, rinse, and mash the chickpeas in a medium bowl.
2. Finely chop celery, carrot, pickle, scallion, and dill. 
3. Add chopped ingredients to mashed chickpeas.
4. Add spices, lemon juice, and mayo. Thoroughly mix everything and use salt and pepper to taste. 
5. Take a wrap, add the chickpea salad, top with some kale and cheese.
6. Hold the wrap together with toothpicks and cut it into 6 even pieces.
7. Store in a container, refrigerate, and serve cold.
