Chickpea Salad Sandwich

- Registered dietitian Cheers, Cora

Ilove sandwiches. Especially when I can wrap them up and carry them in a picnic basket to the park or bring them in a bag on my bike for a little day adventure.

And so, it is with the summer season rapidly approachin­g that I share this super tasty chickpea salad sandwich recipe. It’s one I’ve been making for years and it serves best in a wrap but can also be served in between 2 slices of bread, in a croissant, or on top of crackers. Feel free to enjoy it as you please!
