Yes, that right everyone. Another super tasty alternative to meaty burgers. I have rustled up some really simple, easy and bank friendly burgers for you that are full of flavour, made from veggies and protein filled. A mixture of whole grain rice, chickpeas and grated carrots mashed together with spices, turmeric (optional), salt and pepper.

Prep time - 5 minutes (30-40 minutes if you haven't prepped the sweet potatoes)

Cooking 25-35 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2-3 Carrots (I added 4 because they were only small)

• 1 Tin Chickpeas (240g tin - rinsed)
• 1/2 Cup Brown Rice (packet is fine)
• Spices, Garlic, Salt & Pepper
• Turmeric (optional) 

Topping Ideas - Avocado, Salsa, Salad, Hummus, Beetroot - get creative as you like

Method:

• If needed prep the sweet potatoes in the oven (around 45 mins to cook) and leave to cool slightly
•  Cook up the brown rice until fluffy
•  Whist waiting for the rice and potato to cook, grate up the carrots and rinse the chickpeas.
•  Once all is the hot ingredients are cool blend up the mixture, - we are aiming for a chunky mixture. Try not to over blend, if mixture is wet add a little bit of flour or with bread crumbs.
•  Form into burger patties and place on a tray at 180 degrees for 15 minutes, then flip over and cook for another 10 minutes.
•  Once they are done, remove from the oven and place in to buns and add all your extras
•  Enjoy!
