What can you make with chickpeas and ground beef?
What are some good, easy to make recipes based on chickpeas and ground beef?
It would be great if it was something easily made in bulk, and not too difficult to freeze.

You can prepare a hearty and flavorful chickpea and ground beef curry that is delicious with rice or flatbread. Another option is a Middle Eastern-style stew combining ground beef, chickpeas, tomatoes, and warm spices like cumin and paprika. For a quick meal, try stuffing bell peppers with a savory mix of ground beef, chickpeas, herbs, and cheese

If you are not overly dedicated to "chili can only be made with red beans" then you're looking at (in broad categories) beans and ground meat, so chili or something like it seems moderately obvious for bulk and easy to freeze.
I've never made such a thing, and I consider the recipe I found first laughable (but consider the source - they want you using beef, lots of beef) but some sort of falafel-burger hybrid would also seem reasonable, but perhaps making falafel fails your definition of "bulk" (and that recipe would not do as written anyway unless you only wanted a touch of chickpea flour to a lot of ground meat.)
Meatloaf recipes with beans are common, and chickpea based vegan meatloaf recipes are common, but the intersection seems not to show up in a quick search. But viewing "all beans as more equivalent than not" I'm pretty sure you could adapt a meatloaf recipe to include both - and once you have meatloaf, sheperds (or "cottage" if you are of the "shepherds pie must be sheep based" opinion) pie is only some mashed potatoes baked on top away.
