Better "Tunafish" Sandwich

This better "tunafish" sandwich has all the great texture and taste of this classic sandwich without any animal products. Whether you're vegan or not, this combination of crisp onions and celery with coconut and chick peas makes for a delicious guilt-free lunch that I'd argue tastes better than the original tunafish sandwich.

📝 Ingredients

• 1/2 cup dried shredded unsweetened coconut
• 250 grams cooked chickpeas ((drained))
• 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoons soy milk
• 1 tablespoon tahini
• 1/2 tablespoon nutritional yeast
• 1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Add the coconut to a pot along with a cup of water. Cook the coconut for 30-40 minutes, or until it is no longer tough and dry. Add more water if needed. Drain well.
2. 2Add the cooked coconut and drained chickpeas to a food processor and pulse a few times until the chickpeas are chopped up into crumbles but not so long that it turns into a paste. You can also use a potato masher.
