Use a fork to smash them together until you achieve a chunky paste. Add a sprinkle of salt, a dash of pepper, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Spread this mixture generously on your toasted bread, then top with slices of fresh and pickled cucumber, and a scattering of pickled jalapeños.

Plus, the addition of fresh and pickled veggies adds vitamins and probiotics to your breakfast plate. For those monitoring their glucose levels, this meal is indeed diabetic-friendly due to the low-glycemic index of chickpeas and whole grain bread.
