Ingredients
  • 1 (14 ounce or 400 gram) can heart of palm, drained
  • 1 cup cooked or canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • ¼ cup vegan mayo (I used Just Mayo)
  • ¼ cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1 celery stalk, diced
  • 2 tablespoons pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon whole grain Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon dulse flakes (or more, to taste)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Chop the hearts of palm into ½-inch pieces and place them into a small mixing bowl. Use a fork to shred the pieces (shred them finely, or keep them chunky - your call).

  2. Add the chickpeas to the bowl and lightly mash them with a fork or potato masher.

  3. Stir in the mayo, red onion, celery, relish, mustard, vinegar, and dulse flakes. 

  4. Taste-test and season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust any other seasonings to your liking.

  5. Serve.
