I already had several other recipes lined up to share with all of you before testing/ photographing this one, but I am so excited about this recipe (because it is SO delicious) that I bumped it to the front of my line-up.
Crunch of celery, sharp taste of green onion, sweet burst from the grapes… am I making you want this Classic Chickpea Salad yet?
This Chickpea Salad is delicious eaten by its self, on a bed of lettuce, on sandwich bread, but my favorite way to eat it is stuffed in a croissant. I’m not sure how easy or hard it is to find vegan croissants, because I haven’t looked. I like to make my croissants from scratch. It can be time consuming to make croissants but it is 100% worth it. If you want to try to make your own I suggest using this croissant recipe.
Also dill & sour cream plentils chips pair really great with sandwiches stuffed with this Classic Chickpea Salad.
