Chickpea Smash for sandwiches

Both kids have taken a liking to the kind of sandwich I make for myself most days for lunch, which is basically made out of garbanzo beans and spices, ha ha. Similar recipes are easy to find -- one that I know I started with, and have since doctored to make my own, came from Karissa's Vegan Kitchen.

Here's my version!

Makes 5-6 servings

Ingredients

15 oz can of garbanzo beans, drained*

2 tablespoons aquafaba* (saved from can)

1 tablespoon tahini or vegan mayo

3/4 teaspoon turmeric powder

3/4 teaspoon garlic powder

3/4 teaspoon onion powder

A spritz of lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon salt


Directions

Empty the garbanzo beans into a Pyrex bowl (to save the mix for multiple sandwiches)

Add the aquafaba and smash up most of the beans (I used to use our our potato masher, but I haven't seen it since we moved)

Add the rest of the ingredients and mix it altogether

For a sandwich, one serving is about 2 large spoonfuls


Along with my smash, I made my sandwiches with toasted Ezekiel bread, Daiya American cheese (or Chao original), vegan mayo, and romaine lettuce.
