Preparation
In a bowl, add the chickpeas and use a fork or potato masher to mash them to your desired consistency (a 50-50 mix of crushed to less crushed chickpeas is recommended).
Add the Tahini Ranch dressing to the mashed chickpeas and mix well to combine.
Stir in the finely diced red bell pepper and red onion.
Scoop the chickpea mixture onto slices of your preferred bread.
Optionally, further dress up the sandwich as desired.
The chickpea salad can also be used as a filling for wraps.
