Hi there! These sound really delicious! Don't you just love the chickpea? I was wondering what "brown rice bread crumbs" are? Where do I find them? Thanks! I hope to try these soon! :D
ReplyDeleteBrown rice breadcrumbs are simply that--breadcrumbs made I brown rice instead of wheat bread. Any breadcrumbs will work. I just used brown rice because that's what I had on hand. I got them at whole foods!
DeleteOh! That sounds awesome! Might I ask, what bread that is? I've been searching for a good oil-free sugar-free vegan and gluten-free bread. Not easy as I'm sure you understand!
