Method
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chickpeas, steamed broccoli, za'atar spice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to coat everything evenly.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the chickpea mixture to the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through, stirring occasionally.
- While the chickpeas are cooking, toast the slices of whole grain bread until golden brown.
- Once the chickpeas are heated and slightly crispy, remove them from the heat.
- Assemble the sandwich by spooning the chickpea and broccoli mixture onto one slice of toasted bread. Layer with slices of avocado on top. Add feta cheese, if using.
- Top with the second slice of bread, press gently, and cut the sandwich in half.
- Serve with a side salad and a lemon wedge for squeezing over the sandwich. Enjoy!
