VEGAN FALAFEL SALAD
I decided I wanted to cut out some carbs but keep the taste of Falafel, so instead of stuffing it in a pita, I made it into a huge salad! And it was hit! I got the recipe for the dressing from the PPK, only change was that I added dill casue it's awesome.

Steps:
- For the dressing, heat the 2 tsp of oil in a small saucepan over medium heat and add the garlic. Lightly cook until fragrant, then remove from heat.
- Put everything but the water into the food processor and blend until smooth.
- Slowly add the water until you reach your desired thickness/thinness. Scrape into an airtight container and let it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Prepare the falafel mix and roll into balls or little patties. Cook in canola or vegetable oil until browned all over. Remove from the pan and drain on a thick paper towel to get rid of excess oil.
- Arrange the greens on a plate and top with falafel patties, tomatoes, and drizzle on the tahini dressing.

### Tips
- To make the falafel, you will need chickpeas, onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, turmeric, or cayenne pepper, to taste.
- Once the falafel mixture is made, you can form it into balls or patties. If you are making balls, you can flatten them slightly so that they cook more evenly.
- The falafel can be cooked in a variety of ways. You can fry them in oil, bake them in the oven, or air fry them. If you are frying them, be sure to use a non-stick pan and heat the oil to medium-high heat.
- Once the falafel is cooked, you can serve it with a variety of dipping sauces, such as hummus, tahini, or tzatziki. You can also add it to salads, wraps, or pita bread sandwiches.
- You can use any type of falafel in this recipe. If you are using homemade falafel, be sure to cook it thoroughly before adding it to the casserole.
- In addition to the ingredients listed in the recipe, you can also add other vegetables to the casserole, such as chopped onions, peppers, or zucchini.
- The casserole can be baked in the oven or cooked in a slow cooker. If you are baking it in the oven, be sure to cover it with foil so that it does not dry out.
- The casserole is done cooking when the vegetables are tender and the sauce is bubbly. Serve the casserole hot with your favorite toppings, such as hummus, tahini, or yogurt.
