A new video is up on YouTube! I’ll show you how to batch cook grains and sweet potatoes to make whole food vegan eating a no-brainer. When you batch cook these items, you always have a healthy snack or side dish ready to go, so there’s no temptation to go out looking for junk food. When you clear your environment of the junk food and instead fill your fridge with healthy foods, you’re more likely to succeed in your healthy eating goals.

Both these batch cooked ingredients are perfect bases for any meal. And having them ready also means you can make slightly more complicated recipes fast. I love veggie patties, but they can take time. When you already have these items pre-cooked, it’s so much easier! So in this video I show you a Curry Chickpea Patty recipe using both the grains and sweet potatoes plus a couple extra ingredients. They turned out so delicious! Check out the video to see how it all goes down and I hope you’ll try them out!

Ingredients

  • 1½ cup cooked chickpeas (or one can drained and rinsed)

  • 1 cup cooked short grain brown rice and sorghum*

  • 1 cup mashed sweet potato

  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed

  • ¾ cup rolled oats

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

  • 1 teaspoon curry powder

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add the chickpeas to a mixing bowl and roughly mash with a fork or potato masher. You’ll break up some of the chickpeas, but still leave some larger pieces to create a varied texture rather than a completely smooth texture.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and mix until well combined. The mixture will be pretty sticky, but if you’d like you can add more oats as needed. This is optional, but for best results, you can also let this mixture set in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
  • Form the mixture into 8 equal patties and place on a parchment- or silicone-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, carefully flip the patties (they will be fragile at this point), then bake another 10-15 minutes. Patties will be nicely golden brown and crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside.
  • It’s best to allow the patties to cool for at least 10 minutes and then enjoy the patties by themselves, on a bun or toast, or in a pita pocket. These would be great served with a silken-tofu “mayo” or your favorite vegan condiment.

Notes

  • You could also just use rice instead of the grain blend.
