Baked Chickpea Patties With Lemon Herb Yogurt Sauce image

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...
