Call it a chickpea tuna salad but totally but not tuna, made with a few flavorful but simple ingredients!

The key health bomb here is CHICKPEAS! You may already have guessed this, but chickpeas are a pretty crucial component of this sandwich when it comes to making it a super healthy sandwich. These legumes are high in protein, full of nutrients, and are a great source of fiber. Chickpeas are also known as garbanzo beans, so you may see them labelled that way at the grocery store, but they’re the same thing, I can tell you after much research!
