If you are a fan of falafel, you will love this salad. It has falafel and all of your favorite veggies. Don't forget the tahini and falafel hot sauce!

Yields 2 large salads.

Ingredients:

  • 5-10 small falalfel rounds (can be homemade or from a falafel mix)
  • Romaine lettuce
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 small tomato, diced
  • tahini sauce (recipe below)
  • falafel hot sauce (recipe below) - optional

Preparation:

Falafel Recipe: You can either make a falafel recipe or use a falafel mix. Both are completely acceptable.

Tahini Sauce: Tahini sauce is a sauce made from a sesame seed past. You can prepare your own with this tahini recipe or buy it from a Middle Eastern grocer or natural food store.

Falafel Hot Sauce: This is optional but will definitely give your falafel some kick! Falafel hot sauce recipe.

Prepare falafel, but do not fry yet.

Chop and rinse vegetables. Toss together. Allow to dry on a paper towel for a few minutes, while you fry your falafel.

Fry falafel and allow to drain on paper towel. Lay a bed of lettuce/veggies on each serving plate. Add desired amount of falafel rounds on top of lettuce. Sprinkle with tahini and falafel hot sauce.

Enjoy!
