Avocado Chickpea Lettuce Wraps
By: Vegan + Gluten Free Pantry

Ingredients 

• 1 can reduced sodium chickpeas, drained
• 1 ripe avocado, peeled and seeded
• 2 stalked celery, finely chopped
• 2 green onions, finely chopped
• 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 Boston lettuce leaves
• Toppings
• Alfalfa sprouts
• Sliced peppers
• Tomatoes
• Cucumbers

Instructions

• Pour drained chickpeas into a medium bowl. Mash the chickpeas until about ½ of the way mashed with some chunky peas mixed in.
• Add in the avocado and continue mashing until well mixed and a consistency to your liking. We left ours with quite a few chickpeas chunks to give it the feel of traditional egg salad.
• Add celery, onions and lemon juice and stir until mixed. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Divide salad mix into 4 servings and spoon each serving into a lettuce leaf. Top with desired toppings and enjoy!
