Enjoyed the VegFest, and really enjoyed being with my mom and sister. I really miss being with them. Dinner tonight is this (from vrg.org) except I'm adding a touch of ground cumin.

GARBANZO BEAN BURGERS
(Simply Vegan -- Quick Vegetarian Meals)

2 cups cooked garbanzo beans (chickpeas), mashed
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1/4 small onion, minced
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
Salt and pepper to taste
2 teaspoons oil

Mix the ingredients (except oil) in a bowl. Form 6 flat patties. Fry in oiled pan over medium-high heat until burgers are golden brown on each side. Serve alone with a mushroom or tomato sauce, or as a burger with lettuce and tomato. Makes 6 burgers.

Thanks for taking the time to comment.

This recipe sounds great. We eat a lot of garbanzos over here, but I have to cook them from scratch. I will try this one.

Warmly,
