INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Chickpeas (164g)
1 tbsp Chickpea Flour (8g)
1/4 cup Fresh Parsley, chopped (15g)
1/4 cup Red Onion, chopped (40g)
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tbsp Tahini
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 cup Mixed Greens (40g)
1/2 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt (125g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
In a food processor, combine the cooked chickpeas, chickpea flour, chopped parsley, chopped red onion, garlic, and ground cumin. Process until the mixture is coarse but holds together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Using your hands, form the mixture into 3-4 compact patties or balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray with cooking oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even crispness.
While the falafel bakes, prepare the creamy tahini dressing by whisking together tahini and lemon juice. If the mixture is too thick, add a teaspoon of water at a time until it reaches a drizzling consistency.
Assemble your plate by layering a bed of mixed greens, placing the crispy falafel on top, drizzling with the tahini dressing, and serving with a side of plain nonfat Greek yogurt for an extra protein boost.
Enjoy your nutritious and delicious meal, perfect for any time of day!
