Easy, Plant-Rich Burger Patties
Ingredients:
Veggie Patties:
- 1 Once Upon a Farm Mango, Carrot, Navy Bean & Coconut Butter Meal
- ½ cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- ½ teaspoon Thai red curry paste
- 1.5 tablespoons quick oats
Quick Cashew Curry Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon cashew butter
- ½ tablespoon lime juice
- ½ teaspoon Thai red curry paste
Directions:
- Cook Meal according to package instructions, then transfer to heat-safe medium bowl and place in fridge for 25 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350ºF and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
- Once Meal is cool, add ½ cup chickpeas and red curry paste; mash with potato masher to create a sticky mixture. Make sure chickpeas are mashed well and no whole ones remain.
- Add in quick oats and stir until evenly combined.
- Take about 2 tablespoons of mixture (you can use a medium cookie scoop for ease) and shape into small patties, about ½” in thickness and 2” in diameter. You should get 4-5 patties.
- Place on lined baking sheet and bake for 18 minutes.
Allow patties to cool completely before serving. You may need to cut into smaller pieces for babies/toddlers for safe eating.
Serve with quick curry sauce, if you'd like (simply stir to combine ingredients).
