Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 4 tablespoons flax meal
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/4 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 zucchini, shredded and excess liquid squeezed out
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 red onion, coarsely chopped
  • 1 handful cilantro (about 1/2 cup)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying

Instruction

  • Place the water, flax meal, garlic, and buffalo sauce in your food processor.
  • Process for about 20 – 30 seconds until the garlic is chopped up and combined.
  • Shred the zucchini into a clean, thin dishtowel.
  • Gather the ends and squeeze the excess moisture out of the zucchini over the sink.
  • Add the chickpeas, zucchini, onion, and cilantro to the food processor.
  • Pulse 5 – 7 times fo the ingredients are incorporated but remain chunky.
  • Use a spatula to scrape down the sides and make sure it’s mixed together.
  • Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Heat the olive oil over high heat for a few minutes. Once warm, turn the heat down to medium-high.
  • Use your hands to form 3 balls and place in the pan.
  • After about 1 minute, use the back of your spatula to gently press the balls into burgers and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Flip the burgers and cook for another 3 – 5 minutes.
  • Repeat with the remaining burger mixture until you’ve cooked all six burgers.
  • Serve on a salad, on a burger bun, and finish with your favorite toppings! I love adding ranch, avocado, and tomato in a lettuce wrap!
