Vegetarian or not, you are sure to love this one! The tangy feta mixed with the sweetness of the carrots adds a bucket load of flavour to the chickpeas. And the best part? They are super simple to make and perfect for meal prep/work lunches

 

Meal Prep:

The fritters keep really well in the fridge for a few days and can be eaten cold or hot. You could also make double the amount of fritters and freeze some for a quick and easy meal another day.

Adaptations:

If you are gluten free you can use gluten free flour and if you are dairy free you could try vegan feta cheese instead

Easy option:

If you’re short on time swap the salad for a pre-made salad from the supermarket (like the Coles superfood vegetable mix) and add some dressing

Ingredients
  

  • 800 g tin of chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 4 carrots grated
  • 1 cup coriander
  • 300 g feta roughly chopped
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup flour or gluten free flour

Salad

  • 1 pear thinly sliced

Instructions
 

  • Mash the chickpeas in a bowl. Then add the remaining ingredients
  • Heat a non-stick pan or put a tsp of olive oil in a normal pan
  • Shape the mixture into patties in your hand and place directly into the pan. (It’s fiddlier to shape them all first)
