Here is how you make Chickpea Burger:

(you may want to cut back on the onions depending on who you are serving..these are nicely flavoured ? actually I used cayenne pepper instead of black pepper for a bit more of a kick) I believe we have thrown in some cooked (soft) lentils (because they were in the fridge)1)Heat the olive oil in a fry pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saut? until soft, about 5 minutes ( I mixed in the green onions afterwards). Put in large bowl and let cool.2) Place the chickpeas, red pepper, garlic, horseradish, onions and carrots in a food processor and mush until all of the ingredients are blended. Move to the large bowl with the green onions ( or blend the green and mix with the standard onion). Add the remaining stuff to the bowl and use your hands to combine the mush.3) Shape the mixture into patties and use a brush to lightly coat both sides of the patties with olive oil.4) move the patties to a baking sheet and place in the middle of a preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the patties are golden-brown on both sides. Or throw on a med heat BBQ about 8- 10 minutes per side, or less depending on your BBQ5) Make the burgers in pita or buns from the bread maker and slather with good gooey stuff6) EatMakes 6 pattiesServing Size: 1 pattyNumber of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user LOOPEYAPPLETUSH.
