Smashed Chickpea Guacamole Egg Salad




This recipe is from Kitchen Treaty. I really enjoyed this sandwich!  I chose to eat these open-face style on toasted brown bread, and added some spinach, tomato and cucumber.

A few notes:
  • I mashed 2 avocados instead of 1 (make sure they are quite ripe - much easier to mash)
  • I used 7 eggs and removed 3 or 4 yolks
  • I increased the chickpeas to 1.5 cups (as I was mashing the chickpeas, the skins were coming off so I took about a minute to remove some of the bigger skin chunks, I'm not sure if this was necessary though…)
  • I added half a jalepeno pepper, diced
  • I used lime instead of lemon
  • I excluded the mayonnaise
  • The bread I used is Silver Hills "The Big 16".  One of my fav breads, I store it in the freezer as it can really dry out quickly before I get a chance to finish the loaf.

Alternatively, without the cucumber and tomato
