EASY CHICKPEA SALAD

Steps:

• Begin by removing the casings from garbanzo beans. Pour the garbanzo beans into a bowl and use a dish towel or a paper towel and rub the garbanzo beans with the towel. The casings will begin to fall off the beans. Repeat this step until most of the casings fall off. Not all the casings will fall off. Remove the casings from the bowl.
• Use a wooden spoon, potato masher, or fork to mash the majority of the garbanzo beans (it's okay if there are some whole ones).
• Add the celery, white onion, and pickles to the garbanzo beans. Mix ingredients together and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, add the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, pickle juice, mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to a bowl, and mix.
• Pour the Greek yogurt sauce over the garbanzo bean mixture and mix until combined.
• Sprinkle it with paprika and fresh dill.
• Serve on a sandwich, over greens, or on its own.
