Ever since I discovered the trick of quick-soaking chickpeas instead of using canned chickpeas to make the perfect falafel, my mind is spinning with applications. Don’t worry. This is the first experiment of many. This 10-ingredient version uses chickpeas as a base and is infused with sun-dried tomatoes* for a savory, sweet tomato flavor, which is balanced with fresh garlic and herbs (parsley or basil). *Note: you can learn about the origins of sun-dried tomatoes here. The beauty of this burger is that it doesn’t crumble when bitten into like most veggie burgers. Friends, this is huge! Not only is it delicious and flavorful and full of plant-based protein, but it acts like a “true burger” in texture. Pinch me, I’m dreaming. I hope you all LOVE this burger! It’s insanely flavorful, hearty, satisfying, grillable, and perfect for cookouts or easy weeknight meals. If you give these a try, leave a comment, rate it, and tag a picture #minimalistbaker on Instagram so we know how they turned out! Cheers, friends!
