Breaded Cauliflower ‘Falafel’ Pitas

Hey, you might even like these Cauliflower Falafel Pitas more than the original.

Two weeks ago I shared a recipe I made using Frozen Breaded Cauliflower Florets: Cauliflower Parmesan.

I wrote: “I spotted Frozen Breaded Cauliflower Florets. My kids love cauliflower so I threw 2 bags into my shopping cart.” Now, the recipe I posted only used 1 bag of cauliflower.

What did I do with the second bag? Not one of you thought to ask me that question.

The second bag became an even simpler and quicker dinner. I made Cauliflower “Falafel” Pitas.

      There is no protein. You can choose to serve this with a greek yogurt or a bean soup.

    cauliflower absolutely DOES have protein! Lots of vegetables have protein, but we think that only meat and dairy are sources of protein
