This recipe is inspired by the Mediterreanean Platter at Swinger’s Diner, which is one of the first restaurants I remember visiting when I first moved to Los Angeles. They inspired my Tahini Dill Dressing recipe, too!
Ingredients You’ll Need
What’s in a Falafel Bowl? This is really a build-your-own-adventure type of bowl, but I find these components work well with falafel flavors.
Quinoa Salad (or just plain, cooked quinoa) Tahini Dill Dressing Homemade Hummus (or store-bought) Greek Salad (or any leafy greens with Greek Salad Dressing) Roasted red peppers, chopped cucumbers, red onion, or olives Feta cheese (optional; omit for a vegan bowl) Pickled onions or sauerkraut would also be good, if you have them
Using a quinoa salad as the base eliminates the need for chopping extra veggies, and using a Greek salad instead of plain leafy greens takes the flavor to the next level. But, you can really use whatever you have on hand to make your life easy. Other dressing ideas: Cucumber Tahini Dressing, Lemon Tahini Dressing, or Cilantro Sauce.
