A friend told me of a vegan chickpea mock tuna salad that he made and I tried it when I was in Canada. Today in Mexico I took it up a notch from his recipe which was smashed chickpeas and vegan mayo which was truly delicious.
There is no vegan mayo to be found here in Acapulco so I just used dijon and a bit of olive oil. I added minced carrots, jalepeno, onion, and shredded nori sheets used for sushi. It added a bit of the seafood taste. The sandwich was layered with cucumbers and avocado.
It reminded me of a veggie pate sandwich that I used to get at a restaurant in Montreal called Santropol. They had decent meat free and dairy free options.
The black bean soup had a squash, carrot and potato base because I had half a squash to get rid of (I don't have a fridge).
The squash and potato were blended with sauteed onion, chili and garlic. I then added the black beans, corn and chopped tomatoes.
At the end I garnished it with toasted corn tortillas croutons.
Wow, this looks amazing for some comfort food in Winter 🤤 I was just thinking this morning how much I am craving a good soup.
I make a similar chickpea "tuna" sandwich and I could not believe how much like real tuna it tasted 😮 I cannot wait to try your version @carolynstahl 🌱

Oh that's awesome. I love soup too so much. I always say that I could live on soup. But I don't. Chickpea tuna is the best.

No Veganaise at Soriana? I know they stock some Follow Your Heart products (like the creamy garlic salad dressing) but frankly yours sounds better anyway.

Your recipes always make me so hungry. I made a vegan chickpea tuna sandwich a couple of times now and it's so good! Definitely going to add some nori next time, great tip. Olives are also a great addition.
