I attend a church that believes intentional community nourishes the soul. What better way to accomplish this than by simultaneously nourishing our bodies? Every Sunday we eat a meal together. The meal is made by various volunteers who slave over the planning, shopping, and cooking for about one hundred people. I am one of those volunteers and I LOVE it. Most recently, I decided that making falafel would be easy, as I could make it a day ahead of time and heat it up just before serving. I severely underestimated the laboring that I would need to do, especially since I do not own a food processor. Thank goodness for friends that do, and for mothers who stay over until midnight to help make the dough.
350 falafel balls later...
And don't think I forgot the tzatziki sauce.
These are gluten free and vegan (sans the sauce) and even our meat lovers liked them. And now I have a gallon bag of leftovers in my freezer for a rainy day.
You are awesome. These were so good when you made them for EBs bachelorette party. Yummmmmm!
ReplyDeleteWith the food processor, these were even better! I have a ton of leftovers. I'm happy to share! L(

ReplyDeleteI am always interested in taking leftover falafels off your hands. You should teach me how to make them. PS we should do some canning this summer! Love you my friend.
