SKINNY BAKED FALAFEL

I really love my meat (you might be able to tell from the amount of meat-based recipes on here!), but falafel is something which replaces meat perfectly for me- it’s so satisfying to eat, tasty and filling. I had these ones with this lovely garlicky aioli

It’s also a great thing to make up in a big batch and keep in the fridge as it makes a quick lunch or healthy snack.

This was my first attempt at making falafel- these were quite dry and crumbly, but they tasted delicious. I’m going to do a little more experimentation but I still recommend these!
