Truthfully, this recipe just came together without much thought. I had a bunch of sauteed shredded Brussels sprouts that needed to be used up, so I threw them together with some chickpeas and crumbled feta, and then I whipped up an incredible sauce made with Dijon mustard, nutritional yeast, lime juice, and garlic powder. And, voila, I had one of the most delicious chickpea salads I’ve ever tasted! I hope you guys love this dish as much as I do. Enjoy!

Light & Creamy Chickpea Salad with Shredded Brussels SproutsIngredients:

  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tsp nutritional yeast
