  1. Posting this is akin to "cruelty to bloggers"! They both look and sound delicious. At first I thought to myself, "Oh no, not another chickpea burger recipe." but the ingredients look like a culinary festival on the palate.

    Can't wait to make 'em. Thanks for sharing! BTW... you're a really good mother to your children. Teaching them health, habits and variety through your meal planning.
