Ingredients
  • 2 Whole Sweet Potatoes
  • 1 Can Chickpeas
  • 1 Cup Cooked Quinoa
  • 1 Cup Spinach
  • 1/2 Cup White Onion
  • 2 Tsp Cumin
  • Salt & Pepper to Taste
  • 1 Tsp Paprika
  • 1 Tsp Garlic Powder
Toppings
  • Sliced Tomato
  • Guacamole
  • Alfalfa Sprouts
  • Lettuce
  • Sautéed Onions
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

  2. Peel and slice the sweet potatoes and put them to steam until they are soft enough to poke a fork through them

  3. In another pot put water to boil to cook the quinoa. I generally use a 2:1 cup of water to quinoa ratio. 

  4. Drain and wash a can of chickpeas

  5. Once these three ingredients are ready to go, place them in a food processor. Add the onion, spinach, and spices into the mix and grind all of the ingredients together. 

  6. Once all the ingredients are mixed place some parchment paper in a pan. Roll your burgers into the size you want. I rolled mine into the size of a tennis ball and them flattened them to my desired size. 

  7. Bake them for 35-40 minutes rotating half way through. 

  8. While the burgers are baking, you have time to make your toppings if need be such as guacamole and sautéed onions.
