This is from the Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation's website - haven't tried it yet, but wanted to post it here as I really wanna try it! I've tried some of the others from the site, and they're all pretty healthy and good! I think they'd be great in a tortilla or pita with some diced tomato and cukes...

AIR-FRYER CHICKPEA FRITTERS WITH SWEET-SPICY SAUCE
Chickpeas are a common ingredient in many dishes in Pakistan where I grew up. I incorporate the tastes of my home country when cooking for my American-born daughters. I have combined the light spice of Pakistani foods with the love of deep-fried finger foods that many Americans, including my daughters, enjoy. To eat, dip the warm, air-fryer fritters in the chilled yogurt. Enjoy as a snack, appetizer or as part of a meal. —Shahrin Hasan, York, Pennsylvania

Tips:
- For the best texture, use cooked chickpeas that are still slightly firm. If you use overcooked chickpeas, the patties will be too soft and mushy.
- Be careful not to overmix the chickpea mixture. Overmixing will make the patties tough.
- If the chickpea mixture is too dry, add a little bit of water or broth until it reaches the desired consistency.
- To make the patties more crispy, pan-fry them over medium-high heat until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides.
- Serve the chickpea patties warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as yogurt sauce, tahini sauce, or hummus.
