Falafel

This is one of our favorite fasting meals. Although the falafel is fried it is accompanied by lots of veggies and tastes fresh and yummy. I buy Cedar's Falafel mix and make it from that. Follow the directions but be sure to make smallish balls - they expand.

Serve prepared falafel with pita bread, lettuce, diced fresh tomatoes, red onions, dill pickles and hot banana peppers. Assemble as you would a taco. Top with Tahini sauce.

Tahini Sauce
1/2 c. tahini
1/2 c. water
1/4 c. lemon juice
1 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
salt

Blend together.

This sauce also makes a good salad dressing.
