I used to be vegetarian/vegan years ago, because of food intolerances. I used to make these burgers all the time, loved them! If you’ve never tried chickpeas, they are sooo good. I love them in salads. I real nutty flavor, not like a typical ‘bean’. This recipe is from Simply Vegan.

1 stalk celery, finely chopped
