Pepper Jack Garbanzo bean burger with Orange Chicken (less)

Tuesday night we used our leftover chickpea (Garbanzo) and corn leftovers to make a Garbanzo Bean burger. I topped it with vegan Pepper Jack cheese and a sliced avocado. As if it weren't easy enough I heated up Trader Joe's Chicken-Less Mandarin Orange Morsels. It was fantastic! We at every bite! :)
