Quick and simple to make, this recipe puts a fun ‘bite sized’ spin on the traditional falafel. I added some extra spice, as well as additional goodness by adding chia seeds and spinach to this recipe, both of which are packed with protein, Omega 3 fatty acids and fibre. These taste extra yummy served with my homemade tomato sauce.

Ingredients
Chickpea & Oat Falafel Bites (Vegan + GF)
- 2 medium red onions, finely chopped
- 2 tsp of ground cumin
- Handful of spinach leaves, washed
- 5.5 tbsp of light olive oil
- 1 tbsp of coriander leaves, chopped
- 2 x 400g can of chickpeas, drained & washed
- 100g of wholegrain oats (I used gluten-free)

Homemade Tomato Sauce
Using only a few simple ingredients, this quick and tasty homemade tomato sauce is thick, rich in flavour and very easy to make.
Chickpea & Oat Falafel Bites (Vegan + GF)
1. Heat 1.5 tbsp of oil in a large frying pan or wok on a low heat. Add in the onions and fry until golden (this should take a few minutes).
2. Add in the chopped chilli and fry for a further minute.
3. Stir in the cumin and mix together. Then add in the chickpeas, spinach and coriander. Mix everything together.
4. Place your warm ingredients into a food processor/blender along with 1 tbsp of oil.
5. Whizz up until the ingredients form a mouldable consistency/paste.
6. Once you have your mouldable consistency, place into a large mixing bowl, and add in the oats, chia seeds & seasoning. Mix until fully combined.
7. With clean hands, scoop out some of the mixture and form into balls.
8. Heat up 2 tbsp of oil in a frying pan/wok. Add in your uncooked falafel balls and shallow fry until golden, making sure you turn them frequently. This will take around 5 minutes.
9. Now your gorgeous Falafel's are ready to serve. I always serve mine with my delicious homemade tomato sauce.

Chickpeas are a tasty vegetarian-friendly source of protein. They are also rich in dietary fibre, which helps to prevent digestive disorders and they can boost energy due to their high iron content.
