Mojito Lime Chickpea & Grilled Corn Burger
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Slice sweet potatoes in half lengthwise, and place cut side down on a foil lined sheet tray. Bake until fork tender, about 20 minutes.
- Place oats, sweet potato and chickpeas in the bowl of a food processor; cover. Process until coarsely ground. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Grate the zucchini and place in a cloth or paper towel to squeeze some of the liquid out. Add zucchini, cilantro, and 1 Tbsp Mojito Lime Seasoning to the chickpea burger mix; gently fold into the mixture. Form mix into 6 patties. Refrigerate 1 hour.
- Brush both sides of chickpea patties lightly with oil. Mix remaining 1 Tbsp Mojito Lime Seasoning and brown sugar in small bowl. Coat surface of each patty evenly with the rub mixture. Grill chickpea burgers over medium-high heat about 3 minutes per side or until burgers are golden brown with grill marks and heated through. Grill kale leaves until slightly wilted.
