Ingredients.
4 Wonder® Ballpark Classics Hotdog Buns2 cups raw chickpeas soaked in water overnight (not canned)1 onion1 tbsp. lemon2 cloves garlic minced1 tsp. cumin1 tsp. baking soda4 tbsp. olive oil1 tbsp. of saltStore bought tahini sauce to taste1 cup feta½ cup finely chopped tomatoes2 cups chopped romaine lettuceNote: Store bought falafel work as well!
Instructions.
1. Drain and wash the soaked, uncooked chickpeas thoroughly and blend it well in a food processor with the rest of the ingredients until it turns into a coarse pastry. The texture of the chickpea mixture should be firm enough to easily hold its shape. (If the mixture it too loose, add some breadcrumbs or wheat flour to the pastry. If the mixture is too firm, add a touch more olive oil.)2. Form the falafel into small balls or flat mini burgers it's up to you.3. Preheat the oven to 375F and place the falafels on a baking sheet. Drizzle the falafels with olive oil on both sides. Bake for a total of 30-40 minutes, flipping once at the halfway through the cooking process. The longer you bake them the firmer they'll become.4. Assemble each bun starting with sauce, then lettuce, falafel balls or patties, tomatoes and crumble feta on top before topping with top slice of bun. If the kids prefer ketchup, add in place of tahini sauce.5. For smaller hands slice into thirds with one falafel ball in each!
