Description

Part pesto, part hummus, part guacamole. A multicultural party in your mouth.

Ingredients

  • 15 ounces, weight Canned Chickpeas, Drained And Rinsed
  • 1 whole Avocado
  • 2 Tablespoons Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons Cilantro, Chopped
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • ½ cups Baby Spinach
  • ¼ cups Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1 Tablespoon Tahini
  • 1 pinch Salt And Pepper
  • ½ whole Lemon, Juiced
  • 4 slices Wheat Bread

Preparation

Dry chickpeas and remove as many of the “skins” as possible. Transfer to a medium bowl. Roughly smash chickpeas with the back of a fork or a potato masher until they’re about half smashed, half intact. Set aside.

Combine remaining ingredients except bread in a food processor and process until creamy and combined. Transfer half the “pesto” to the bowl with the chickpeas and combine with a spatula.

Use remaining pesto to spread on each slice of bread. Spoon pesto/chickpea mixture onto one piece of bread and top with another slice to create a sandwich.

YUM!! My new power sandwich. Unfortunately I do not have a food processor so I made it in my blender. It was not as pretty as yours as you couldn’t see bits of avocado and sundried tomato but the taste was delicious. The partially smashed chickpeas add a density.
I’m going to take it to my next tennis match for the team. We’ll kick butt!!
