Preparation
To Make the Salmon Hummus Spread:
- Soak the chickpeas. You’ll want them completely covered in water in a container that will allow them to expand. Place them in your refrigerator overnight.
- Drain the chickpeas and boil them covered on medium heat for about 40 minutes or until they’re tender.
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas and add them as well as the rest of the salmon salad spread ingredients to a blender.
- Blend until not quite smooth! This will leave a little bit of texture for the salad.
To Make the Salmon Salad Sandwich:
- Chop up a stalk of celery and 2 green onions into smaller sized pieces.
- Mix together a few tablespoons of the spread with as much dill as you like, green onions, celery, Sriracha, vegan mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard.
- Slice up your bread and spread on a tablespoon or 2 of the salmon spread to one of the slice.
- Add to this a couple of slices of tomato, a few pickles, and a handful of arugula.
- Slap down that other slice of bread on top of your finished sandwich.
