Ingredients
  

1 cup cooked chickpeas (or 1 can, drained and rinsed)

1/2 cup finely chopped celery

1/2 cup diced cucumber

1/4 cup red onion, finely diced

1/2 avocado

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons tahini

2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Whole grain bread or your favorite plant-based bread

Leafy greens (like spinach or arugula) for layering

Instructions
 

In a large bowl, mash the chickpeas with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth, leaving some chunks for texture.

    Add the chopped celery, cucumber, red onion, avocado, parsley, and dill to the mashed chickpeas. Mix well to combine.

      In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, tahini, and nutritional yeast (if using) until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

        Pour the dressing over the chickpea mixture and gently fold until all ingredients are well combined.

          Toast the slices of whole grain bread if desired.

            To assemble the sandwich, spread a generous portion of the Green Goddess salad mixture onto one slice of bread.

              Add a layer of leafy greens on top, then place another slice of bread to close the sandwich.

                Cut the sandwich in half, and serve immediately, or wrap it up for lunch on the go!
