Vegan Tuna
Disease will never overwhelm you if your determination to be healthy is strong enough.
Vegan Tuna
This vegan tuna is simply amazing. It’s so easy to make and tastes remarkably close to actual tuna, no really it does. It’s wonderful on sandwiches for a vegan tuna salad sandwich!

Notes
We used one 15-ounce (425g) can of chickpeas, drained. If you would prefer to use cooked chickpeas (not canned) then the amount to use is 1 and ½ cups.
Leftovers keep very well in the fridge for 2-3 days.
This is divine served on open faced sandwiches with lettuce and sliced tomato and makes enough to top 4 slices of bread.
