Oh so delicious!!! I tweaked this recipe a bit for ingredients I had at home. Pimento stuffed green olives instead of black, 1/4 c diced celery, 1 tsp cumin and extra lemon juice. I had to stop myself from eating all of this before making a sandwich from it. This will definitely a keeper!!! Thank you!!

I made this for my housemates today and we all loved it immensely. Some minor alterations I made were to roast the onions with the bell peppers before adding them to the chickpea mixture. I also substituted the Tahini for a Tzatziki sauce, and topped the sandwiches with sliced avocados. Scrumplicious!

Deb, I’m late to this post by a couple of years at least but I made this today, and it was so delicious, a comment – however belated – was called for. I’m Indian and live in New Delhi and chickpeas are a meal staple but with strong Indian flavours. I would never have thought of them on a sandwich (though I love hummus) but what a revelation this was. I used a Greek yoghurt dip for the base (minced garlic, green chilies, cilantro, salt and pepper blended with the yoghurt) and added sumac and a dash of sweet paprika to the chickpeas but otherwise stuck to your recipe – divine. You’ve just given me a whole new approach to home-made sandwiches!

I made this today, though I sort of just threw it all in the food processor and kind of made ultimate hummus and used a ciabatta roll with veganaise and sprouts. Omnomnom.

Dee-lish! I used chick peas, chopped red onion, chopped cucumber, parsley, and s touch of goat cheese :) Perfect easy dinner for one with ingredients I already had.

Wow, this was so flavorful and so EASY! It’s the perfect10-minute meal. We added mashed avocado and roasted pepper strips (from Deb’s own recipe!) on toasted sourdough and it was perfect. Thanks!

Beautiful and simple recipe! It was suppose to be a side dish, but we ate all of it before dinner was ready. Fantastic – thank you!

…just found this recipe – have made it twice in the past week. First time, as written – was nearly perfect for my tastes. Second time, added just a touch of garlic and a pinch or two of basil. This really needs nothing more – hard not to eat the whole batch. Thank you…
