Bon Appetit

This is one of those foods that doesn’t look super appetizing while you’re making it, but ends up tasting so good you don’t mind.

Chickpea Patties

2 cans chickpeas

1 cup oats, chopped ( I use a mezzaluna, but I’m sure a food processor would work as well.)

1/2 cup buffalo sauce

2 eggs whites, whipped

1 large onion, grated

2 teaspoons garlic powder

Mash the chickpeas until they’re mostly pasty, with a smaller amount still whole or in large pieces.

Add all ingredients to chickpeas and stir to combine thoroughly.

Spray a skillet with oil.

Drop chickpea mixture onto skillet in 1/3 cup measures. I use a round, flat measuring cup, which gives me perfectly shaped patties. If yours does not, just pat them down with the back of a spoon until they’re the shape you’d like.

Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes per side, til golden brown.

We like to eat these on buns with homemade ketchup. That’s a recipe for another day.
