This satisfying, spicy-sweet curried chickpea salad a cousin of the ever popular Chickpea Sunflower “Tuna” Salad. It’s excellent in a lettuce wrap, as a dip for sliced veggies cucumbers or peppers, atop on apple slices, or on crackers or bread. Honestly I just eat it straight out of the bowl with a spoon.

This looks great. any thoughts about substitutions if you just hate Mayo?
Hmm, I’m not sure. Maybe oil or tahini?
Not a fan of mayo, so used tahini and a little water to thin. Really good.
