6 recipes, one day—Part 2—"Chicken" salad sandwich

After doing the groceries and making those yummy truffles, we got a little hungry. So I took the opportunity to share a vegan recipe that pretty much tastes like the real deal. it's perfect for when you are in a hurry or on the go. You can even make them in advance.

Cruelty free and yummy. It's a win-win.

We needed:

  • 1 can of chic peas, rinsed
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon of parsly
  • 1/2 tablespoon of onion powder
  • 1/3 cup of Veganaise (you can use mayo if you insist)
  • slices of bread
  • lettuce
  • salt and pepper

1. Start by pouring the peas in a large bowl. Take a potatoe masher and start mashing those peas. Its okay if some are still whole.



2. Pop in the onion, parsly, onion powder, a dash of salt and pepper and the veganaise and mix well.

3. Take your bread slices, toasted or not and add a leaf or two or lettuce for some extra crunch and color.
4. ENJOY.


It all took about 5 minutes to make. It's a great alternative to chicken salad. It has less fat, the exact same taste and a very similar texture.

You could also spread it on cracker instead of bread or even roll it in a wrap or lettuce leaves.

We sure did enjoy it!
