Cook quinoa to package directions. Set aside to cool.
Meanwhile, add 1 Tbsp olive oil to a small pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until onion is soft and translucent 7-10 minutes. Set aside and let cool.
Mash chickpeas, and combine with quinoa, onions & garlic, breadcrumbs, spices, cilantro, lemon juice, and chia eggs in large bowl.
Heat oven to 375° and line large baking sheet with parchment paper. Form 1 - 1 1/2 inch balls with the chickpea mixture and line up on pan. Spray or drizzle a little bit of olive oil on top.
Bake 25 - 30 minutes, until balls are golden brown. (For a little extra crisp, broil on high an additional 2 - 3 minutes.)
