I don’t know how it is where you live, but here in Denmark it is pretty hot these days, and therefore it is just the time for a delicious, light & fresh dish like this.
In this heat (Don’t misunderstand me .. I love the heat & the sun!), you don’t always want to sit down & eat a dish that is really heavy & warm – And therefore this dish is perfect!
It is light & fresh & it is also beautiful to serve – Well .. Don’t forget that you also eat with your eyes 😉
I just love falafel, and they are great in this bowl with other delicious veggies ♥
The dish doesn’t take long to make, and it taste great!
