1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained
1/4 cup chopped sweet pickles + more pickle slices for topping
2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup mayonnaise or vegan mayo (I use olive oil based mayo; a light option or even Greek yogurt also works)
2 teaspoons mustard
1/8 teaspoon celery salt (optional)
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 slices of your favorite sandwich bread
1 cup potato chips
Green leaf lettuce (optional)

Steps:

Add the chickpeas, 1/4 cup chopped pickles, onion, mayonnaise, mustard, celery salt if using, kosher salt, and black pepper to a small bowl. Using a fork or potato masher, smash the chickpeas while mixing and mashing the ingredients together. You're not looking for hummus-consistency; just a nice, spreadable, chunky salad will do.
Divide filling between two slices of bread (you may have enough to make more sandwiches, depending on your preference and the size of your bread). Spread to within about 1/2 inch of the edge of the bread. Add lettuce if using, pickle slices, and potato chips. Top with remaining bread. Smush down a bit, cut in half, and serve.
