  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 3 servings

Ingredients

Dressing Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup spinach
  • 1/3 cup fresh basil
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, roughly chopped
  • 2 green onions, roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 medium sized avocado, pitted and flesh scooped out
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Salad Ingredients

  • 1, 15 oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup cabbage, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
  • 1/3 English cucumber, finely diced
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, finely diced

Sandwich Assembly

  • 6-8 slices of your favorite bread
  • Hummus
  • Dijon mustard
  • Extra spinach (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dressing: Add spinach, fresh basil, dill, green onions, nutritional yeast, crushed garlic, avocado, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper to a small blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth, then set aside.
  2. Mash the Chickpeas: Place the rinsed and drained chickpeas into a large mixing bowl. Use a fork or potato masher to lightly mash the chickpeas until mostly mashed or to your preferred consistency.
  3. Combine Vegetables: Add finely diced cabbage, red onion, cucumber, and jalapeño pepper to the mashed chickpeas. Toss everything together along with a pinch of salt and pepper to evenly mix.
  4. Mix in Dressing: Pour the creamy green goddess dressing over the chickpea and vegetable mixture. Toss thoroughly until all ingredients are fully coated with the dressing.
  5. Assemble the Sandwich: Spread hummus on one slice of bread and Dijon mustard on another. Add extra spinach on the hummus-spread slice if desired. Pile the green goddess salad mixture onto the hummus side, then top with the mustard slice. Slice and serve immediately for a fresh, flavorful sandwich.

Notes

  • You can adjust the amount of jalapeño pepper based on your preferred spice level.
  • Use gluten-free bread if you want to make the sandwich gluten-free.
  • For added protein, consider adding slices of grilled chicken or tofu if not vegan.
  • If you prefer a creamier texture, blend the salad mixture slightly before assembling.
  • Store leftover salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
