HOMEMADE FALAFEL WRAPS

These falafel wraps are honestly one of the most delicious things we make. I have found it’s difficult to find a ready made falafel my family really likes so I decided to make some off of how I remember my grandma made her meatballs. Honestly, almost everything can be made vegan and it’s usually the other flavours we are connected to more than the meat itself! I hope you guys love this recipe that is full of protein. Be flexible and add and change up whatever you want, that’s how our recipes are meant to be. Add what you love (peppers, pickles, vegan cheese!) we love using pepperocini peppers in ours too!
