Baked Falafel – Vegetarian Recipe

Falafel 4Falafel was introduced to me by my son since lately it’s been his favorite lunch served with a garden salad.

I was convinced that I would like this food as well, so decided to research some recipes, and prepare a batch for my family.

Today I will share the final recipe, and assure you that if you like vegetarian food, you will LOVE these.

These are not your typical falafel…round and deep fried….these are much lighter since they are baked.

The main ingredient is chickpeas, which is a super protein food, hence replacing the traditional need for meat to create a delicious lunch or light dinner.

Falafel may be formed into patties or balls and served not only with salad, but also with your favorite dipping sauce, inside a pita, or even over nachos….drizzled with some melted cheese, of course.

This recipe yields 8 burger-size patties.
