Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (14-oz) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- ⅓ cup chopped celery
- ¼ cup chopped scallions
- 6 small cornichons, chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill (or 1 tablespoon dried dill)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice, plus 1 teaspoon zest
- 1 tablespoon vegan mayo
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon capers
- 1 small clove of garlic, minced
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 large avocado
- ½ cup Original Almond Breeze Almondmilk Unsweetened
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice for the sauce
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill for the sauce
- ¼ teaspoon salt, more to taste
- 12 bibb lettuce leaves (for wraps)
- ¼ cup thinly sliced radishes (optional)
- ¼ cup pickled red onions
Instructions
- Prepare the Chickpea Salad: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the drained chickpeas, chopped celery, chopped scallions, chopped cornichons, minced garlic, dill, lemon juice and zest, vegan mayo, Dijon mustard, capers, and freshly ground black pepper. Using a fork or a potato masher, gently mash the mixture until well combined but still slightly chunky. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes.
- Make the Avocado Dill Sauce: In a blender or food processor, combine the ripe avocado, almond milk, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper. Blend until creamy and smooth, adjusting the consistency with more almond milk if necessary.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay the bibb lettuce leaves flat on a serving plate. Spoon the chickpea salad mixture into the center of each leaf, drizzle with the creamy avocado dill sauce, and top with thinly sliced radishes and pickled onions. Serve immediately.
Notes
To enhance flavor, store the chickpea salad and avocado dill sauce in an airtight container separately for up to 3 days. Assemble right before serving for maximum freshness.
