I adore Falafel wraps! This is probably my all time favorite vegan dish! I'm not a vegetarian in fact, I'm a total carnivore! Hardly a day goes by that I don't eat meat, but when something is good, its good and that's that! Let me tell you, this is good. You can certainly follow the baking directions for a bit less fat. The one's pictured here are baked not fried. Hope y'all enjoy these as much as I do!

How to Make Falafel Pita Wraps
- Soak your Garbanzo Beans in water over night, then rinse.
- Run all ingredients through a food processor until very finely ground and well blended.
- Shape into patties
- Pan Fry Directions: Heat 1/4 inch of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add falafel patties and fry for about 7 minutes per side or until crispy and browned.
- Baking Directions: Coat a jelly roll pan with 3-4 Tbsp. olive oil and bake in a 375 degree, preheated oven for 13 minutes. Turn and bake for another 13 minutes or until crisp and browned on both sides. Add more oil if desired for crispier falafel.
- To make a pita wrap: Warm pitas by wrapping them in aluminum foil and placing them in a 375 degree oven for about 10 minutes or so.
- Spread 2 Tbsp. hummus onto pita bread. Add two falafel patties. Drizzle with a bit of tahini sauce. Load up with veggies of your choice. Fold pita into a wrap sandwich and enjoy!
