not sure what the cutoff point is between cheap/healthy food and healthy food so I'm just gonna go for it. made this for lunch today and it was tasty so I thought I'd share.
Tzatziki dressing
- 1 cup greek style yogurt (sour cream would probably work as well)
- 1/2 cucumber, peeled and then shredded
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp dried dill weed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp sour (I used vinegar, but I think lemon juice is traditional)
- oat milk to thin it down into a dressing consistency
- salt to taste
mix it all together & add however much oat milk you'd like to get it thinned down to be a salad dressing
Falafel
- 1 cup dried chickpeas, soaked for 12 hours, drained
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tbsp baharat spice blend
- 2 tbsp oil
- a generous pinch of salt
preheat oven to 390 F. grind it all up in a food processor until the chickpeas and onion are chopped very fine, like large grains of sand. form into balls/patties/lumps (I used my hands, so they're sort of oval shaped), bake for 17 minutes.
plate with whatever your favorite greens are (I used romaine hearts), chopped tomatoes (for color), a few falafel, drizzle with the tzatziki sauce & sprinkle a pinch of dill over top.
I want to eat this! Thank you for sharing the recipe :)
