Calories: 265

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tbsp buffalo-style hot sauce
  • 2 tbsp vegan mayo
  • 1 rib celery, finely diced
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • Salt and black pepper

Method
 

  1. Drain and rinse chickpeas, then mash in a bowl with a fork until about half are broken down but still chunky, about 2 minutes.
  2. Add buffalo sauce, vegan mayo, celery, green onion, nutritional yeast, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Fold together until evenly coated, about 1 minute.
  3. Scoop onto toasted bread, into a wrap, or into lettuce cups. Serve immediately or refrigerate for later.

Notes

If you have time, let the salad rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving; the flavors meld and the texture firms up slightly. Use any leftovers within 4 days.
