This could have made an amazing sandwich but it made an awesome wrap. I’ve been missing tuna melts, not for the fishy tinned tuna but for the melty goodness and crunchy celery. To make the filling I combined the following:
1 32oz tin of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 tbsp vegan mayo
1 cup of chopped celery
1/2 chopped onion
a generous pinch each of tarragon and thyme
1 tbsp marmite or vegemite
salt and flake red pepper to taste
I started by adding the celery and onion and microwaving it until the onion was soft.
I actually used a fork to mush the chickpeas. I liked the texture it provided since it reminded me more of real tuna that way. Once it was all mixed together, I microwaved it until it was hot and then adjusted the seasoning.
We combined this on a wrap with some Daiya cheddar which we melted by microwaving and then topped with some spinach and tomato. It hit the spot, EXACTLY!
This is Christie, signing off!
