easy, delicious, vegan veggie burgers. hearty and just so good —AnnieCate
Ingredients
-
2
cans of chickpeas, rinsed and drained
-
4
smallish carrots (about 6 oz worth)
-
1
10 package frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed of moisture
-
1/2 cup
finely diced purple onion
-
1
jalapeno
-
2 teaspoons
coarse kosher salt
-
1 1/2 cups
frozen Maine blueberries (do not thaw)
-
3/4 cup
hemp seeds
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 400. Set aside 1 cup of the chickpeas.
-
Roast the rest of the chickpeas for about 5-8 minutes. This will dry them out a bit and give the burger more of a hearty bite.
-
Raise the heat to 450.
-
In a food processor or blender combine the carrots, spinach, chickpeas (both roasted and unroasted), jalapeno, and salt. Blend to a coarse paste.
-
Stir in the onion, blueberries, and hemp seeds.
-
Form into patties. The patties I made were 3 1/4 inch in diameter and about 1 inch thick. This yielded 8 patties. I've been able to stretch the recipe to 10 patties by making them a bit thinner....but honestly, the nice thick meaty ones are better.
-
Place on a parchment lined cookie sheet (I actually like to form the patties directly on the sheet, so I don't have to move them)
-
Bake for 22 minutes.
-
Serve with ketchup (optional), love (not optional) and avocados/
