Chop about 1/3 cup each of celery, red onion, and pickles, aiming for a fine chop but leaving some crunch.

Add the chopped vegetables to the mashed chickpeas.

Mix in the vegan mayonnaise until well combined, adjusting the amount based on preference.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more pickles for umami flavor if desired.
