"Tuna" Salad

Here is a vegan spin on Tuna Salad.  Not to toot my own horn (BEEP BEEP) but this is the closest thing I have had to tuna salad since I went veggie! 
 
You will need:
-2 cans of chickpeas (drained VERY well)
-1/2 cup of diced dill pickles



-1/2 cup diced white onion
-1/2 cup veganaise (more or less to taste)
-1 sheet Nori (shredded/ripped)
-1tbl brown or Dijon mustard
-A generous squeeze of lemon juice from ½ a lemon
-A generous squirt of sriracha

Now What?!
-Take the drained chickpeas and mash with fork.  I HIGHLY recommend not putting this in a blender or food processor unless you want hummus with pickles and onions in it (ew).  Mashing with a fork adds to the texture.
-Once the chickpeas are all moooshed up, add in the rest of the ingredients and mix up. 
-Let chill over night (recommended)





Serving suggestions:
-Serve on greens as a salad with some grape tomatoes.
-Pile on some nice vegan bread and have a sandwich.

-Eat with a fork at 2am, in your underwear in front of the fridge.
