Who would have thought chickpeas and veggies would make such a tasty sandwich? This sandwich whips up in a flash, is full of flavor, and is one of our family’s faves.
When our family transitioned to living a whole food plant-based lifestyle, it was a relief to know that having tasty and filling sandwiches did not have to go out of the window. This recipe inspired and adapted from the 22-Day Revolution definitely saved the day! Eating Plants never tasted so good!
