- 1 lime cut up in wedges

Instructions

Notes
1. You can reserve the brine from the chickpeas to make aquaphaba. AKA vegan meringue. Recipe on the way…soon ๐
2. You can certainly chop everything up by hand, however I like the homogenous mix that the blender and or food processor gives us plus…IT’S A TOTAL TIME SAVER.
3. If you are out of tomatoes, you can use 3 tbsp of tomato paste instead.
