If your a vegetarian but love a good sandwich then this recipe is for you. I love a good tuna salad, so I came up with the closest vegetarian thing to a tuna salad. By adding nori seaweed flakes to chickpeas you get the same texture, and flavor as a tuna-salad. You can use this recipe in a sandwich, on a salad, or with crackers.
