      2 Garlic Cloves, each cut in half
      1/2 cup Fresh Italian Parsley Leaves, packed
      2 tsp. Dried Mint
      17 oz. Garbanzo Beans, rinsed & drained
      1/2 cup Plain Dried Bread Crumbs
      1 tsp. Ground Coriander
      1 tsp. Ground Cumin
      1 tsp. Baking Powder
      1/2 tsp. Salt
      1/4 tsp. Ground Red Pepper(cayenne)
      1/4 tsp. Ground Allspice

    1. 1) In food processor with knife blade attached, finely chop green onions, garlic, parsley, and mint. Add garbanzo beans, bread crumbs,
      coriander, cumin, baking powder, salt, ground red pepper, and allspice and blend until a coarse puree forms.

      2) Shape bean mixture, by scant 1/2 cups, into eight 3-inch round patties and place on sheet of waxed paper. Spray both sides of patties
      with olive oil spray.

      patties.

      4) Cut off top third of each pita to form a pocket. Place warm patties in pitas. Serve with choice of accompaniments.
