Whip out your food processor and prepare to make arguably the easiest chickpea 'tuna' recipe out there. Make it from scratch with simple ingredients like celery, onion, and lemon juice added to your chickpeas. You can add a hint of the ocean to this dish using dulse flakes. These flakes are simply dried dulse seaweed made into a powder for seasoning. The dulse flakes will give your chickpea mash a wonderful umami flavor alongside the fresh veggies.
Ingredients
- 3 cups canned chickpeas drained and rinsed
- 1 cup celery chopped
- ¼ cup red onion diced
- 2 tbsp parsley chopped
- 2 tbsp green onion finely chopped
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp dulse flakes or powder
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas and place them into a food processor. Pulse several times, just until the beans are mashed up. Do not over process or you'll have hummus.

- Stir everything to mix and taste for seasoning.
