Ingredients

6 servings
  • ¾ cup light mayonnaise
  • ¾ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 medium garlic clove, (minced)
  • 2½ cups canned chickpeas, (drained and rinsed)
  • 4 large eggs
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 small onion, (finely chopped)
  • zest of one lemon
  • ¾ cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup toasted whole grain bread crumbs ((see Recipe Notes below))
  • cooking spray or olive oil
  • 6 slices cheese ((optional))
  • 6 hamburger buns
  • desired toppings: sprouts, lettuce, tomato, grilling veggies, cheese, etc.

Steps

  1. Combine all of the mayonnaise ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Scrape into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.

  2. In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, eggs and salt. Puree until thick (the consistency of thick and chunky hummus is what you're looking for).

  3. Scrape into a medium bowl and stir in the cilantro, onion, lemon zest and peas. Add the breadcrumbs and then let sit for a few minutes so the mixture has a chance to moisten the breadcrumbs. The resulting mixture should be one that is moist enough to form into patties. If it's too dry, simply add a couple of tablespoons of water or egg, and if it's too wet just add a few more breadcrumbs.

  4. Divide the mixture into 6 parts and form into six burgers. You can prepare the burgers ahead of time to this point (place on a rimmed baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to cook).

  5. Spray cooking spray (or add olive oil) in a large skillet and heat to medium. Add 3 patties, cover and cook for 7 to 10 minutes or until bottoms are browned. Flip the patties and cook for another 7 minutes on the other side. Top with cheese at the end of cooking, if you wish! Repeat with the remaining three patties.

  6. Toast the burger buns and add your favorite toppings.
