Description

Packed with sweet potatoes and mustard and plenty of spices, these burgers are easy to make ahead and full of great flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • One can of chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 2 medium sized sweet potatoes, peeled, chopped and steamed
  • 2 tablespoons of Dijon (I used Maille)
  • 1 teaspoon of liquid smoke
  • 1 tablespoon of Bragg’s Liquid Aminos
  • 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon of Italian seasonings
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon of Psyllium husks (helps as a binding agent)
  • 1 cup of gluten free rolled oats (I used Bob’s Redmill)
  • 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa
  • Olive oil for sautéing
  • 3 spring onions, diced
  • 1 stalk of celery, diced
  • 1/2 of a yellow bell pepper, diced

Instructions

  1. Into your food processor, add your chickpeas, sweet potatoes, Dijon, liquid smoke, seasonings, oats, quinoa and liquid aminos.
  2. In a sauté pan, add a drizzle of olive oil and once hot, add your onions, peppers and celery. Cook that for about 4 minutes, stirring often. Take your veggie mixture and add it to your food processor. Blend all of the ingredients by pulsing several times. You want it chunky and not a paste. Once achieved, get a platter ready and start making burgers with freshly washed hands (leave them a bit wet as it will make this process easier). Repeat until all of the burgers have been made. Then I sauté them in a pan with a bit of olive oil to brown the outsides. I remove and finish cooking in a 350 degree oven for 6-10 minutes to heat through OR freeze individually wrapped. To reheat – place on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes in a 350 degree oven or until heated throughout.
