Notes

  • The recipe for the winter kale falafel can be found here
  • But if you don’t feel like making falafel no worries – you can use store-bought or just omit
  • If using kale be sure to “massage” the leaves with a little lemon juice and olive oil before serving – it tenderizes the greens and makes them much easier to digest! Any other greens would work too like spinach or a mesclun blend
