2. Place chickpeas in a medium bowl. Use a fork to press and roughly smash some of the chickpeas. It's okay if some remain whole.

3. Add tuna to the chickpeas and stir to combine, using the fork to flake the tuna.

4. Add the mayonnaise mixture and onion to the bowl and stir until well combined.

5. Spread the mixture evenly over 4 bread slices (about 1/2 cup each).

6. Top each slice with 1 lettuce leaf and cover with the remaining bread slices.
