Vegan Chickpea and Brown rice patties
Are you looking for a delicious vegan patty recipe with a kick of flavor. Then this vegan Chickpea and Brown rise patties recipe is for you.
These patties are incredibly crunchy on the outside, yet soft and fluffy on the inside. Plus they are a great source of veggie proteins. And unlike a lot of other chickpea patties, these ones won’t crumble and fall apart.
One of the things I love about this recipe, is the freshness and exotic flavors it has. That’s in part thanks to the fresh basil, peanut butter and lemon grass. You won’t believe how amazing they taste until you try them (but be warned, they’re so good you may find yourself addicted).
I love to play around with this recipe, and substitute the fresh basil for cilantro or thyme and even adding dried tomatoes to give them more of a mediterranean flavor.
What’s great about this recipe:
- Super easy to make – you can just throw all the ingredients in a foodprocessor and blend. That’s it!
- Ideal for meal prep. They can be pre made and frozen for later. It doesn’t get any easier than that
- Very healthy and packed with veggie proteins, vitamins and minerals.
I love using these crowdpleasers in burgers, making them into sticks and eating them as appetizers or serving them as patties with stuffed potatoes and salad…and the list goes on. The possibilites are endless, but they are all so delcious.
These easy to make vegan patties are packed with flavour. Try them on the BBQ for a delicious and easy summer meal, or cook them on the stove. You can’t go wrong with these crispy heavenly mouthfuls.
