How to Prepare Chickpea Quinoa Veggie Burgers [Vegan]

  1. In a small bowl, mix ground flax with warm water and set aside for 5 to 10 minutes, until a gloopy egg-like texture is achieved.
  2. Put mashed chickpeas, quinoa, grated carrot, zucchini, green onion, hemp hearts, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and spices in a large bowl and stir well to combine. Add the flax eggs and mix well. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  3. Shape mixture into 6 patties, approximately 2 cm (or 3/4" inch) thick, or 8 smaller burgers.  Refrigerate the burgers for 20 to 30 minutes to allow them to set while you prepare the toppings.
  4. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the burgers, approximately 4 to 5 minutes per side or until nicely browned and warm in the middle.  Alternatively, the patties can be cooked on a well-oiled grill.
  5. Serve with your choice of buns and toppings.
