January 2011--Chickpea Sandwich Filling

This is one of my new favorite lunches.  It's super quick to prepare and super yummy.  It's made with things I usually have on hand.

1 (19 oz) can garbanzo beans
2 stalks celery, chopped
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon dill weed
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Drain and rinse the chickpeas.  Put them in a mixing bowl and mash them with a fork.  Mix in remaining ingredients.

Of course this will taste better after it has sat for a few hours (and the onions will be less strong) but it is still good right after it is made.  I put it on whole wheat toast with lettuce, honey mustard, and avocado slices...If tomatoes were in season I'd include those too.
