This Mediterranean White Bean Fennel Salad Sandwich is a delicious vegan sandwich recipe. Chickpea salad is all well and good, but white bean salad is just as good. I actually prefer the texture of white beans to chickpeas.
I added fennel instead of celery to this recipe to give it italian vibes. The parsley adds a fresh herby flavor and the capers add brininess and acidity. Overall, this is an amazing sandwich recipe.
I love a good white bean recipe. For more white bean recipes try my mediterranean white bean salad or my crispy white beans.
