1 tsp. ground turmeric

2 tbsp. chopped parsley

¼ tsp. salt or to taste

¼ tsp. pepper or to taste

For serving: sliced bread, pita, or tortilla wraps

INSTRUCTIONS

Rinse the cooked chickpeas and drain well. Add the chickpeas to a bowl, and mash them with a potato masher. I prefer to roughly mash around 75% of them to give a nice texture to the salad.

Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.

Spread a generous amount of the chickpea salad on a slice of your favorite bread.

Add toppings (avocado, cucumber, boiled egg) and drizzle with a little bit of olive oil, if desired.
