Not-Tuna Salad

(recipe from WholeFoodsMarket.com)

1 15oz. can (or equivalent cooked dried) garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 apple, cored and chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped pecans
2 Tbsp. dill relish
2 Tbsp. finely chopped red onion
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh dill
2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. kelp granules (I just used some herby salt)
ground pepper to taste

Pulse the garbanzo beans in bowl of a food processor until coarsely chopped.  Transfer to a medium bowl and add apple, celery, pecans, relish, red onion, dill, lemon juice, and kelp granules.  Stir until well combined.  Season with pepper and chill until ready to use.

Perfect for sandwiches, wraps, or spread on crackers.

(I ate this within whole wheat wraps, spread with a little Dijon mustard, along with a few small kale leaves.  I love dill, so I thought this had marvelous flavor.  Oddly tuna salad like in texture and taste...  So easy, and so delicious.)
