Tu-No!-Fish Salad
"Mashed chickpeas make a tasty vegan sandwich salad that reminds me of tuna salad. It's especially good in a whole-wheat pita with tomato slices and some lettuce. All the ingredient amounts can be modified to suit your tastes or what you happed to have around."

very good! i missed tuna so much, and this was just so delicious! -
Pretty good! I didn't have any onions on hand and I think that's what I needed most, for that extra something. I did spice it up a bit with some dried dill weed. This was very easy to make and I think I'll be making it again soon. Oh, and this would work really well as road/picnic food! -
I made this recipe with fat-free mayonaise. It was excellent--very flavorful with the Dijon mustard and vegetables. I highly recommend it.

Books and cooking are my passions...I love cookbooks by default. I will begin working on a Masters in English this coming fall...hopefully I'll still have time to cook! Someday I'd like to be able to publish my own cookbook from my family's recipes, but for now I'm just going to concentrate on getting my degree and becoming a better cook. I have an amazing boyfriend who, at 30, is just learning how to like vegetables and two rad, stripey cats.
