Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can chickpeas
  • 1 can tuna
  • 2 carrots
  • 1/4 c mayonnaise
  • 2 T capers

Method
 

  1. Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Drain the tuna. Grate the carrots.
  2. Mix those ingredients well. Add the mayonnaise and capers, and mix that well.

Notes

You can serve it at once, but the flavor improves if you let it rest a few hours, or overnight, in the refrigerator. Which makes it a great recipe to double for lunch later in the week!
