By jre123

Ingredients

• Garbanzo Burgers (makes 9 patties)
• 1 15 Oz. Can Garbanzo Beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 Small Carrot, chopped
• 1 Garlic Clove
• 1 Small Onion, chopped
• 2 Eggs
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 1/3 Cup Bread Crumbs (I used whole grain)
• 2 Tsp Sesame Seeds (I used toasted sesame seeds)
• 1 Tbsp Oil
• *You can place these on buns, although I served them with a slice of avocado on top and dipped them in lemon yogurt sauce.

Preparation

Step 1

1. Place the first 6 ingredients in a food processor and pulse until combined.
2. Place garbanzo bean mixture in a bowl and combine with remaining ingredients.
3. Place 1/4 cup of mixture in your hands and form into patties (I used an ice cream scooper to portion the patties-mixture will be moist).
4. Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium high heat.
5. Cook the patties for 5 minutes.
6. Turn the patties, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes.
7. Serve.

*After step 3, place patties on a sheet tray and freeze for 30 minutes. Then transfer to a ziploc bag, label and freeze up to 4 months. When ready, defrost in fridge for 24 hours then follow steps 4-7.
