I love using chickpeas to create a vegan or vegetarian burger, as they are high in protein and are easy to digest by most people. This is a very satisfying meal that I serve with a side of greens and guacamole. You can also eat it as a snack with some yogurt or eat it as a vegetable burger.I like to soak my chickpeas the previous night, wash well in the morning and then cook it in a pressure cooker or instant pot. However, if you are strapped for time use canned chickpea, make sure to wash the canned chickpeas well and drain before using.
