Baked Cauliflower Falafel with Almonds and Broccoli Seed Sprouts


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2018 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




Falafel gets a healthy makeover! These flavourful baked falafels are better than the real deal, because they are made with cauliflower, broccoli sprouts, white beans, almonds and einkorn flour! It makes a great lunch paired with salad greens, extra roasted cauliflowers, Feta and a refreshing yoghurt dressing.
