This is really a clearing-the-fridge type of dinner, meant to get rid of all those unsavoury veggies sitting…
Baked Spinach Quinoa Falafels
In other words: my latest obsession. It’s taken me way too long to get a falafel recipe right. believe me, I’ve tried almost everything this year from lentils to mushrooms to wild rice. I just could not create a falafel recipe that a) Didn’t fall apart in my sandwich b) Wasn’t drier than the Sahara desert…
