Garbanzo Sandwich Filling


I found this recipe in one of my mom's recipe files and I think it's from a 1970's vegetarian booklet, very progressive of her. You can make it without vegan mayo but I like it to be a more creamy filling and I also like eating it open faced with a sprinkling of radish sprouts.  It's just as satisfying and I'm not filled up on bread.

Garbanzo Sandwich Filling

1            14 oz. can garbanzo beans, mashed
1/4         chopped olives  (I used Green olives)
1            celery stalk, finely chopped
2            tablespoon grated or finely minced onion
1            teaspoon lemon juice
              pinch of thyme
              pinch of onion powder
              vegan mayo – to your liking


**            I added a few pimentos for color

No-Bake Peanut Butter Cup Bars


After too many Holiday cookies and deserts, I was looking for a chocolate treat that wasn’t loaded with flour and sugar.  This recipe uses Almond Meal as the crust and pure maple syrup for the sweetener.  Just keep in your fridge and snack away!
