Healthy Eats: Falafel Sandwiches

In the city I've had some pretty bad felafel. The worst, I'd have to say, was from the food truck parked at the corner of our street, which serves up crunchy, dry, and over-salted deep-fried balls of disgrace. But I guess that's not surprising from a truck that also serves "chessburgers" and "sosages."
On the other hand, Crisp in Midtown serves up a tasty felafel ball. This week I decided to try my hand at this Middle Eastern staple and was very pleased with the results. It was delicious! Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and full of flavor. Stuffed in a pita with tabouli, lettuce, tomato, hummus, and greek yogurt, it's my new favorite healthy eat.

Healthy Eats: Black Bean Veggie Burgers



It's been a goal of mine to learn how to make healthy food that actually tastes good. To do this,  I  decided to try a new recipe every week. First up, Homemade Black Bean Veggie Burgers. Simply amazing. Marshall even loved them and this was on a day that he had eaten Five Guys for lunch. I served them with a side of roasted brussel sprouts which neither of us knew we were a fan.
