To make this 🥑 Avocado chickpea sandwich 🥪 you will need:
⭐️Ingredients:
For filling:
3/4 cup garbanzo beans cooked and cooked /canned
1 small avocado
1/2 small onion finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/2 lemon juice squeezed
1 tsp salt
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp nutritional yeast
2 Tbsp ketchup
2 slices of multigrain bread
2 Tbsp feta cheese
Handful of spinach leaves
1/2 sliced tomato
⭐️Method:
1️⃣In a bowl mix all ingredients and use a fork to mash chickpeas, avocados and mix everything well. Squeeze lemon juice, this will help avocado from turning brown, be generous!
2️⃣Toast a slice of bread , spread 2-3 Tbsp of the mixture evenly on the toasted bread slice.
3️⃣Layer with spinach and sliced tomato. You could add lettuce, spring mix, arugula , micro greens whatever is available. Sprinkle feta cheese.
4️⃣Layer with another slice of toasted bread, cut in half and enjoy!
6️⃣Serve with a soup or a side salad.
✨For balanced blood sugars, I would add a low sugar Greek yogurt like siggis or no sugar Greek yogurt like Oikos.
✨You could also use canellini beans, white navy beans instead of the chickpeas/garbanzo beans. As always, make this recipe work for you depending what you have!
✨ This filling can also be used to make wraps. The measurement above made filling enough for two sandwiches, adjust based on servings you like.
