These delish patties provide a great source of protein and fibre, and make a great meal alongside a salad, or make them smaller and serve as an appetizer with a cucumber and yogurt dressing to dip in.
Ingredients:
1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 cup grated carrot
1/3 cup dry bread crumbs
2 tbsp salad dressing
1 egg
2 tbsp vegetable oil
Preparation:
Mash chickpeas in a medium bowl with a potato masher – be sure to leave some larger pieces. Stir in carrots, bread crumbs, salad dressing and egg. Shape into 4 patties. Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. When oil is hot add patties and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side or until browned. Remove from pan, drain on paper towels, and serve hot.
