INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Chickpeas (164g)
1/4 cup chopped Fresh Parsley (15g)
1/4 cup chopped Fresh Cilantro (15g)
1 Small Onion (70g)
2 Garlic Cloves
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Tahini
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Water
1 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (245g)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a food processor, combine the cooked chickpeas, chopped parsley, cilantro, small onion, garlic cloves, and ground cumin. Process until a coarse, slightly chunky paste forms. Be careful not to over-blend.
Shape the chickpea mixture into small patties or balls, about the size of a golf ball. Flatten slightly if desired for a patty shape.
Lightly brush the patties with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the falafel is crispy and golden on the outside.
While the falafel is baking, prepare the creamy tahini sauce by whisking together the tahini, fresh lemon juice, water, and a pinch of salt until smooth and slightly thinned to your desired consistency.
Remove the falafel from the oven once cooked and serve warm, drizzled with the creamy tahini sauce alongside a generous serving of nonfat Greek yogurt.
Enjoy your healthy, crispy falafel meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
