To lighten the recipe, use light mayo or a combo of ½ mayo ½ plain yogurt.

Vegan? Use a vegan mayo and vegan-friendly English muffin.

s
You can make mixture ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you’re ready to use. (I suggest no more than 2-3 days in the refrigerator.)

Want it more smooth or more chunky? Mash the chickpeas more or less depending on the texture you like. 

On the current WeightWatchers Program (2023) it is 5 points per serving.
