Ingredients

TZATZIKI:

1/2 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded, grated, and squeezed dry

1/4 cup fat-free plain yogurt

1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

BURGERS:

6 tablespoons flaxseed

1 can (15 1/2 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained

1/4 cup rolled oats

2 cloves garlic

2 tablespoons water

1/4 cup chopped fresh mint

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/4 cup panko bread crumbs

1 egg, lightly beaten

1 tablespoon olive oil

4 whole wheat hamburger buns

1 medium tomato, cut into 8 slices

1/2 cup alfalfa sprouts

Directions

1. To make the tzatziki: In a small bowl, combine the cucumber, yogurt, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate while preparing the burgers. 2. To make the burgers: In a spice or coffee grinder, process 5 tablespoons of the flaxseed to a fine meal. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the chickpeas, oats, garlic, and water. Pulse until the mixture is coarsely chopped. Add the mint, lemon juice, cumin, salt, pepper, and flaxseed meal. 3. Pulse the food processor until the mixture is just combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a 1/2"-thick patty. 4. Combine the bread crumbs and remaining flaxseed on a plate. Dip the burgers in the egg, then dredge in the bread crumb mixture. 5. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until golden. 6. On the bottom of each bun, place 2 tomato slices and 2 tablespoons alfalfa sprouts. Place the burgers on top of the sprouts and top each burger with a slightly rounded tablespoon of the tzatziki.
