How to make it

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, mash the drained chickpeas with a fork until mostly smooth but still a little chunky. You want some texture in your patties.

  2. 2

    Add the drained tuna, the finely diced red bell pepper, the egg, and the Greek yogurt to the bowl. Mix everything together really well until it is all combined.

  3. 3

    Form the mixture into about 6 to 8 patties. They should be firm enough to hold their shape easily.

  4. 4

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a tiny bit of olive oil. Cook the patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until they are golden brown and heated through.

  5. 5

    Serve them warm and enjoy your flavorful, protein-rich meal. They are great with a simple green salad.
