If you are looking for a nutritious falafel recipe, which is delicious, healthy, easy to make and diet friendly, keep reading and save this recipe!
Chickpeas are traditionally used for falafels but I can reassure you that lentils make super yummy falafels too!
Also these falafels are not fried but cooked with no oil in the air fryer, making them a perfect recipe for weight loss.
With only 1WW point for 3 of these falafels, you will want to make these over and over again!
I’ve had mine accompanied with some salad but they would be great in some pitta bread too. The kids enjoyed these falafels as snack after school.
A perfect way to incorporate more protein in your family cooking!
