Description
.

Ingredients

 * 15-1/2 oz. can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
 * 12 oz. box of firm silken tofu
 * 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
 * 1 tsp. granulated garlic (or 1-2 cloves fresh garlic, pressed)
 * 1 Tbsp. old bay seasoning
 * Salt and pepper to taste
 * 12 oz. can of Tuno
 * 2 pieces bread, crusts removed, cubed (the original recipe called for white, but I used a grainy whole wheat with success)
 * Flour
 * Bread crumbs, cornmeal, or ground-up fritters

Directions
1. Blend chickpeas and tofu in a food processor, then mixing in lemon juice, garlic, old bay, salt, and pepper.

2. Strain/press the Tuno to get rid of as much excess water as possible, then combine it with the chickpea/tofu mix.

3. Fold in the cubed bread and a little flour at a time until it starts to become a bit sticky.

4. Grab a handful, roll it in breadcrumbs/cornmeal/fritters, and form into a patty.

5. Pan fry or deep fry the patties until crispy on the outside.
