This. Is. So. Good. If you like turkey burgers and cranberries or Hawaiian burgers, this will be your official summer burger. It’s filling, but light and has a lot of flavor. In fact, this is so good I think it’s better than a beef burger! Don’t be mistaken, it doesn’t taste like meat. It isn’t trying to compete, the flavors are just so well paired together that it is irresistible. You know when you are really full, but it’s just so good that you reach for another one anyway? Yes, that good. This Sweet Potato Chickpea Burger with Apricot Mustard & Rosemary Potato Fries will knock your socks off!











I was always a meat-eater for the condiments. I never really liked the texture and taste of meat. I still don’t really. I do love BBQ sauce, jellies, ketchup, mustard, etc. But meat itself? Kinda boring to me. It always needs…something. This burger needs nothing more, nothing less. It has the perfect mixture of condiments. In fact, it’s made to compliment the condiments. I tried this without the fresh basil leaves with the first bite and it was missing something. When I added the basil…wow. Just wow. The perfect pop of flavors and a fireworks show in your mouth. Make this! Put these items on your grocery list and make this! I won’t deny it’s kinda exotic in flavor pairing, but if you have an adventurous palette and like a lot of flavor, this is for you. I love this! I would take this burger over anything any day. In fact, I wish I could sell this recipe to a restaurant so I could have it made for me. But that’s the beauty of a burger! You can make these ahead and freeze and just pull them out the night before to bake. Who doesn’t love a good burger? And it has a beautiful orange color to it. This is my new favorite, can you tell? I’m really excited. It’s 10 o’clock at night when I’m writing this and I’m totally hyper because I have to tell you how good it is. Good thing I have a blog or I’d be annoying all my friends with pictures of food.



AND it’s nutritious! Sweet potatoes, hemp seeds, chickpeas, basil who could ask for anything more! Here are the nutrients you are getting in this meal:

Sweet Potato: Vitamin A, Vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin D, iron, magnesium and carotenoids. I always have some sweet potatoes or yams cut up in the freezer.

Hemp Seeds: Omega 3, Omega 6, GLAs, protein, Vitamin E and all 20 amino acids and all 9 essential aminos…making this a complete protein without the saturated fats.

Chickpeas: Molybdenum (helps breakdown amino acids and metabolize fat, which you’ll love paired with the hemp seeds!), manganese, folate, copper, fiber, phosphorus, protein, iron and zinc.

Basil: Potassium, manganese, copper, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, folate, iron, omega-3, magnesium, reduces inflammation, the pigmentation of basil shields your skin from oxygen (therefore anti-aging) and it has oils that are used as an antibacterial.

Can you say all this about most burgers you eat? I definitely met my goal for adding lots of veggies to my meal. I’m so full! This is a great dinner for a workout night since it is high in protein. Okay, time to give you this amazing recipe!
