I’ve made these burgers by Running On Real Food heaps of times and they’re always delicious. To make it kid friendly I took a batch out before I added the Sriracha, and kept it seperate as my boys don’t like too much spice. Sometimes I also just make the patties and use them as ‘rissoles’ and serve them with salad or veggies instead if I don’t feel like bread.
PREP: 15 MINUTES | COOK: 10 MINUTES | SERVES: 6-8
Ingredients:
- 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 red onion, roughly chopped
- 1 small zucchini, roughly chopped

Method:
- After draining and rinsing the chickpeas, place them in a food processor or blender. Add the onion. Pulse 10 times until roughly chopped (not smooth)
- Add all the other ingredients to the bowl and pulse more. You don’t want it to be completely smooth, but keep going for your preference.
