In my lawyer days, I ate my fair share of Sad Desk Lunches. You know what I’m talking about: limp salads and one-note sandwiches that leave you hungry (and even sadder) 45 minutes later.
We all deserve better. And that’s where my ultra-satisfying, creamy-crunchy (and low-effort!) Chickpea Salad Sandwich comes in.
Lunch should be FUN, and this sandwich delivers delight in every bite. Think: chunky chickpeas in creamy sauce, lots of zing from capers and lemon to keep things bright, plus herbs for freshness and veggies for crunch.
Plus, it comes together lightning fast and simply (the food processor does the work), and is a great candidate for meal prep (the sandwich filling stays good in the fridge for many days).
Go ahead, treat yourself to a sandwich with serious charisma.
“This was so delicious and easy to make! And the flavor definitely reminds me of the tuna salads I used to eat before going vegan.
I kept looking at the sandwich suspiciously and asking “What’s in this??” even though I was the one who made it :-P
I’m definitely adding this to my rotation of meal prep-friendly lunch recipes, and I’m looking forward to exploring some of the suggestions for other ways to serve it!”
Wishing you many exciting lunches this week (and every week!)
