Chickpea Waldorf Salad

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

For the Salad:

  • 1½ cups cooked chickpeas or 1 can, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup red or green grapes halved
  • 1 stalk celery finely chopped
  • 1 apple chopped (Honeycrisp or Gala work great)
  • ¼ cup raw walnuts chopped
  • Optional: chopped parsley or fresh dill for extra flavor

For the Tofu Mayo:

  • ½ cup silken tofu
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • ½ tsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp maple syrup
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp onion powder
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Make the Mayo: Blend all mayo ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Prepare the Salad: Slightly mash the chickpeas in a large bowl—just enough to break some up.
  • Mix It Up: Add grapes, celery, apple and walnuts. Pour the tofu mayo over and stir to combine.
  • Chill and Serve: Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
