Today’s This Week’s Cravings theme is GO GREEN: ST. PATRICK’S DAY and I’m sharing my Chickpea Brown Rice and Broccoli Burgers.
Chickpea Brown Rice and Broccoli Burgers
Ingredients
4 cups chickpeas
2 cups cook Brown Rice, Long-Grain
¼ cups Broccoli Slaw (Shredded Broccoli)
2 teaspoons mince Garlic, Cloves
¼ cups dice Onion
½ cups Pumpkin, Canned
¼ teaspoons Salt
¼ teaspoons Black Pepper
Serving Day Ingredients
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
These chickpea brown rice and broccoli burgers are a delicious option for vegan, meat-free option for Lent. And a great way to sneak extra broccoli in for kids who aren’t such big fans. We used our CrockPot Salsa Chickpeas (mainly because that’s what I had in the fridge) for a little extra pizzazz and it turned out great.
The Results
Wow; these burgers were a hit for the whole family. I think the flavor of our CrockPot Salsa Chickpeas really enhanced the burgers. The kids were originally a little wary of the look of the burgers, but went crazy for them once they took bites. The meat-eating husband, who is not a big fan of chickpeas, surprisingly loved them too! Super win!
