Chickpea Veggie Burgers

When someone thinks of the 4th of July what usually comes to mind?

• Fireworks
• Warm weather
• Friends & Family
• Games
• Alcohol
• And of course, Grilling

As I knew I was going to be traveling to my parents cottage for the 4th, I asked my mom if she would pick up some frozen veggie patties that I could grill. I wanted to make it as easy as possible as I knew she would already be doing a lot of cooking.

Instead she responded asking if I wanted to make my own, which of course I did.

These Chickpea Veggie Burgers are fast & easy to make, yummy & a great food prep idea as well. Get out your grill!
