Cuisine American, Asian
- 100 g soft/silken tofu
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp liquid sweetener
- ½ tsp vinegar or lemon juice
- ¼ tsp red chili flakes
- ½ tsp salt more to taste
- ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper more to taste
- ½ cup chickpeas
- 1 small green apple diced

In a food processor, blend tofu mayo ingredients until smooth.
Add in chickpeas first, and blend until desired texture. Add in the remaining ingredients and pulse to combine. Blend the mixture for longer if you like a creamier texture.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or longer to allow the flavours to develop. Serve chilled as a side, in a sandwich or in a wrap. Enjoy!
