This Andouille Spiced Roasted Chickpea Sandwich is one of my favorite sandwiches to eat. I used many of the spices that are used in Spicy Andouille Sausage. Garlic, fennel, and smoked paprika for that smokey taste. It’s delicious and hearty!
Using good bread is key for making amazing sandwiches, so make sure you use a good quality loaf. I bought some freshly baked multigrain bread from my farmers market which completely elevated the taste. Give this recipe a try!

- 2 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
- salt to taste
- 2 cups freshly cooked chickpeas or canned (drained and rinsed)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- bread slices
- ½ cup vegan mayonnaise my recipe or store-bought
- sliced tomatoes
- a few romain lettuce leaves
- a few slices red onion
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a mixing bowl add the fennel, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, italian seasoning, salt, chickpeas, and olive oil. Mix well and place on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 20 minutes and remove from the oven.
- To assemble, add your desired amount of vegan mayo to the bread slices. I like to add the romaine lettuce next. I make the romaine lettuce leaf face up (the curve goes up kind of like a little lettuce cup). This allows me to add the chickpeas next so the lettuce can hold them in and the chickpeas won't fall out as much. This ensures the sandwich will be a little less messy.
- Top with tomato and onion and the other slice of bread. Enjoy.
Oh yum, this looks so delicious. I think I’d enjoy both of these. Yum!
Thank you!
These recipes look terrific. I love chickpeas – I mostly have them in hummus – but I would love to try this recipe because I like the andouille flavors. I might try them as a dish on their own with a salad. Beautiful pics – making me hungry!
Great idea! These chickpeas would be great on a salad! Thank you.
The sandwich and the smoothie look really yummy! I’ve never tried a ginger carrot smoothie before. Looking forward to trying these recipes.
Thank you!
Wow! That looks amazing. And I love your picture quality! It’s so vibrant and enticing!
Thank you very much!
I would be a happy girl to enjoy your smoothie and that delicious looking sandwich. Would never say NO, hahaha so hard 🙂
Thank you!
The color of the smoothie is so salivating! I’ve never has chickpeas before. They look interesting on a sandwich! I am definitely a smoothie girl!
I love my smoothies too!
I’ve never had chickpeas in a sandwich before, only in a salad! But I’ve had hummus on a sandwich. Is there some benefit to eating the chickpea whole instead of hummus?
No, eating them either way is fine! I love using hummus on sandwiches too. I actually have a recipe on this website for a Roasted Veggie and Hummus sandwich!
I am glad you shared this. I currently drink two smoothies a day and only eat one meal. With this being the case I am already excited to try new smoothies. I’ll definitely give this a try in the next few days or so.
Thank you!
These look so delicious – I never would have thought in the past I’d want a carrot smoothie, but now I really do! 🙂 also love the roasted chickpeas, the sandwich looks so tasty. Also planning to pin it so I can try to make it later thanks for sharing! I’d love for you to also share it at the #trafficjamweekend if you want! 🙂 http://bit.ly/2oJ3FTH
