Broccoli is the star ingredient in this take on the traditional Middle Eastern falafel. A great do-ahead recipe – shape into traditional rounds, into patties, or any shape you like. Keep in the refrigerator until ready to dehydrate or form into desired shape and store in the freeze for future use. I should note, while these broccoli bites are dehydrating, the aroma that drifts through the air is a delicious fragrant backdrop to any get together.
These little crowd pleasers are perfect served as an appetizer accompanied with hummus. Wrap in lettuce leaves with tomatoes, onions and tahini sauce for a substantial meal, or enjoy it alone as a quick and healthy snack.
Note: The dehydration time suggested is based on my personal preference on texture. Feel free to adjust dehydration time to suit your preference.
