• 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1. Put olive oil in a ten-inch non stick frying pan and heat.

9. Form into 8 burger patties.
10. Lightly coat the 10-inch non stick pan with cooking spray (or a few more tbs of the olive oil) and turn heat to medium.
11. Place all burgers in pan when hot and cook 2 to 3 minutes per side or until heated through and golden.
