Ingredients

Scale

Falafel

  • 8 falafel balls (store-bought or homemade, about 3 oz total)

Vegetables

  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves, washed and dried
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 cup tomato, diced

Hummus

  • 1/2 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Falafel: Heat the falafel according to package instructions or your recipe—commonly pan-frying over medium heat with a little oil until golden and crispy on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Vegetables: Rinse and dry the fresh spinach leaves. Dice the cucumber and tomato into bite-sized pieces for easy eating.
  3. Assemble the Bowl: In a serving bowl, arrange the spinach as the base. Add the cooked falafel on top, then spoon dollops of creamy hummus around. Scatter the diced cucumber and tomato over the bowl for color and freshness.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Optionally drizzle with extra olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, or sprinkle with herbs like parsley for added flavor. Serve immediately for best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can bake or air-fry falafel as an alternative to pan-frying for a healthier option.
  • Use fresh, high-quality hummus for the best flavor and creaminess.
  • Add extra toppings like olives, feta cheese, or a sprinkle of paprika for variety.
  • Make it vegan by ensuring falafel and hummus do not contain any animal products.
