Are you looking for a yummy appetizer for the Holidays…would you love a real easy entertaining recipe? Well if you answered yes…I want to share my Falafel Stick Easy Appetizer with you. You are going to love them…they look wonderful…taste great and …can be made ahead of time plus! Then there is yet another treat waiting for you…4 of my friends {Gina Ashley, Karianne & Laura} are sharing some wonderful Easy Entertaining Recipes and they have them ready and waiting for you!!!
I have to tell you …the power of the “chick pea” makes being a vegetarian so much easier! It is packed with protein…flavor and is so incredibly versatile. Out of all of the culinary delights that can be made by with these special beans…falafels always come out the winner!  A really yummy falafel is a bit messy to eat…so I had to figure out how I could serve these special little bundles of flavor to family and friends with ease,,,and I did! So many Mediterranean treats are served on a stick…so why not a falafel! Am I right!
It’s a natural…but where to get mini mini pitas? No problem…create them yourself. You can use a really good pita bread or you can use naan (both available at just about every grocery store). I went with naan this time…all I did was get out my 2 inch round cookie cutter and out of each piece of naan…I got 8 perfectly round bases to my mini falafels. Quick…Easy…Inexpensive! I can hear you thinking…that little tip can be used in MANY recipes!!! Then it was time to layer…how to keep everything neat and in place?..sounds like the job for glue…edible glue that is …this was a job for tzatziki sauce…that wonderful blend of rich Greek yogurt…garlic…parsley…lemon juice and a touch of olive oil. Let the stacking begin…Nann base…a touch of sauce…piece of lettuce…touch of sauce……falafel…touch of sauce…a Greek olive and then top it off with a little piece of grape tomato and then the toothpick…
repeat…repeat…repeat…and plate them up with some fresh lemon slices and serve them up with some Sunshine Wine.
Oh yes…sugar your glass rims for an extra special touch!
Cheers!
