Notes:
This is a falafel recipe I adapted for my diet. It makes about 6 servings so it is a great family meal as well. I мейд it for me and my mom and we both loved it. Plus, it is 100% vegetarian. Adapt as you need to.
Servings: 6
Ingredients:
1 can of drained chickpeas
1 cup of bread crumbs (I use whole wheat crisp bread and then grind it down)
3 whole wheat pitas
2 small plum tomatos
1 1/2 cup spinach
6 tsps mayo (i use vegetarian soy mayo tastes like real mayo but like 1/3 the calories)
2 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon parsley
1 small onion diced
1 c. diced celery
1/2 c pre-made hummus (this i add to give it a little moisture if not it gets real dry)
Directions:
1. Mix together the onion, garlic, parsley, celery, hummus and mashed (or blended) chickpeas.
2. Roll into 1 1/2" thick balls
3. Bake at 350 degrees until firm around the outside and slightly browned.
4. Put mayo, spinach and tomato into pitas sliced in half with 2 balls.
1 serving is 1/2 a pita with the falafel balls (2), this recipe should make like 12-18 medium sized falafel balls.
