Falafel Waffle

Get your crunch on!

This is great meal for a family transitioning to a PBD or for a child refusing traditional “salads” or greens.

Top waffle with greens, a chopped salad, fresh herbs, spices, dulse, and/or fresh guacamole.

Optional: orange salad dressing. Not only does it make the greens irresistible, but it moistens the falafel and ties all of the flavors together.
