Ingredients

  • 15 ounce can of garbanzos drained
  • 2 stalks celery diced
  • 1/4 cup onion diced
  • 2 T parsley chopped
  • 1/2 avocado optional
  • 2 T nori seaweed crumbled (optional)
  • DRESSING
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 T ground walnuts
  • 2 T ground almonds or almond flour
  • 2 T lemon juice
  • 1-2 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 T garlic powder

Instructions

  • Drain the garbanzo beans. Place them in a medium sized bowl and mash with a potato masher and/or the ends of a fork. You can microwave them for a couple minutes to help soften the beans. This will make it easier to mash them.
  • Add onion, celery, parsley and stir. In using avocado, add that now. Stir in with the other vegetables.
  • In a separate cup, blend all the dressing ingredients.
  • Add the dressing to the bean and vegetable mixture. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

If you are sensitive to nuts, you can replace the nuts and water with 2/3 cup unsweetened soy yogurt. This will also make a lower-calorie dressing.
