Take advantage of the high protein and fiber content of chick peas by adding this side dish to some veggies and a serving of protein like baked chicken....yum:-)
1/4 cup Red pepper chopped
1/4 cup Zucchini chopped
1/4 cup Onion chopped
1 tsp coconut oil
1 tsp Garlic minced
1/2 tsp Ginger minced
1/2 tsp Curry powder
1 cup Chick Peas drained & rinced
1 whole egg
1 Egg white
1/4 tsp salt
2 pinches pepper
2 tsp Lemon juice
- Heat up frying pan or skillet on med heat
- Add in the coconut oil, peppers, zucchini and onion and sauté until light brown
- Add in the garlic, ginger, curry and sauté for 1min more
- Break out the food processor and add in the above sautéed foods with the chick peas, eggs, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Blend this up until smooth or your desired cake consistency
- Set fry pan to heat to med, use some non-stick spray and scoop out 1-2 tbsp of the mixture into little cake circles
- Check under the cakes to see if they are light brown (4min/side about) and flip over
- Repeat this process until all mixture is used up
