Vegetables
- 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
- 1/2 cucumber, diced
- 1 medium tomato, diced
Hummus
- 1/2 cup hummus
Instructions
- Cook Falafel: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the falafel balls for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and heated through.
- Prepare Vegetables: While the falafel cooks, wash and dry the spinach leaves. Dice the cucumber and tomato into bite-sized pieces.

- Feel free to add additional toppings like olives, pickled onions, or a sprinkle of feta cheese for variety.
