Ingredients
- 2 (15 oz) cans cooked chickpeas drained, rinsed and pat dried
- 6 tbsp vegan mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp + 1/2 tsp curry powder
- 3/4 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 cup chopped red grapes
- 1/4 cup chopped green onion
- a handful of fresh cilantro
- fresh lime to taste
Instructions
- Start by washing and chopping your green onion, grapes, celery, and cilantro.
- Drain, rinse and dry your canned chickpeas (I just wrap my rinsed chickpeas in a few paper towels and pat dry).
- Add the chickpeas to a large bowl with your vegan mayonnaise, turmeric, curry powder, salt & pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well with a spoon then grab a potato masher or fork and mash up your chickpeas. You can mash the chickpeas entirely or you can leave a handful or so unmashed for some additional texture.
- Once your chickpeas are mashed, add in your celery, grapes, green onions and cilantro and stir. Taste test and adjust salt and pepper, if needed. At this point, add your lime juice to taste. I like mine with lots of lime flavor, so I add the juice of about one medium lime.
- This recipe is very easily adjusted to your taste preferences. If you want more curry flavor, just simply add more curry powder. If you want more sweetness, add more grapes. Add more vegan mayo if you prefer it more creamy and if you want more tang, just add in some extra squeezes of lime!
- Cover and store in the fridge. This will keep well for about 3 to 4 days.
