How long does this recipe take to make?

You’ll be enjoying this easy vegan toast recipe in about 30 minutes! Once you have all of the components cooked and prepared the first time, you can certainly store them separately in the fridge and then assemble your toast as a meal prep whenever the mood strikes. Just be sure to warm the sun dried tomato spread and chickpeas in the microwave for a minute or so first (it tastes best warm)!

How do you make this chickpea tzatziki toast?

This recipe is SO easy–and I really mean it! Here’s all you need to make this healthy vegan lunch:

• Parsley, for sprinkling
• Bread: I recommend using a whole grain bread
• Sun dried tomato spread: Or, make your own! I’ve included directions below in the recipe
• Roasted chickpeas: I used a mix of chickpeas and white beans for this recipe, but you can use any bean(s) you like
• Vegan tzatziki: the full recipe for this vegan tzatziki is below!

What type of bread should I use?

I am a hugeee fan of Dave’s Killer Bread. I’ve been using their bread for years! Their bread is nutritionally dense and tasty. They are expanding into more stores, so you can likely find it in the bread aisle of your local grocery store.

And no, this is not sponsored, I just really do love them!

How do you make homemade sun dried tomato spread?

You can totally buy sun dried tomato spread in the grocery store, and I recommend doing so if you want to make this chickpea tzatziki toast very quickly. However, I happened to have a jar of sun dried tomatoes in my pantry, so I decided to make my own spread at home. You can do so too, if you prefer!

All you have to do is pour the sun dried tomatoes into a food processor and blend until it forms a paste. The sun dried tomatoes are already packed in oil which should give you a smooth spread, but you can certainly add a splash more of olive oil if you want a super creamy sun dried tomato spread.

I also like to throw in a couple of garlic cloves, a pinch of salt and Italian seasoning, a splash of apple cider vinegar, and a drizzle of honey to balance out the flavors. Taste and add whatever seasonings you prefer!

How do you make the vegan tzatziki?

This vegan tzatziki is completely dairy free, and comes together easily! To make this dairy free tzatziki, simply mix together the following:

• tahini
• cucumber (diced, peeled, and strained of water)
• juice of 1/2 lemon
• minced garlic
• pinch of salt
• 3-4 tbsp warm water
• dill

The full recipe for this vegan tzatziki recipe is below. I know you’re gonna love it!

How do you roast chickpeas?

Roasting chickpeas (or any bean) is a simple process that takes about 30 minutes.

First, drain and rinse your canned chickpeas and then toss them in a bit of olive oil and seasonings (I like to do a mix of cumin, coriander, salt, paprika, and Italian seasonings).

Spread the chickpeas on a greased baking sheet and cook in a 400 F oven for about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
