great balls of falafel!

While on Instagram yesterday a gal I follow shared a Falafel recipe that not only looked good, but looked easy AND I had just about everything at home to make!  Score for me!!  When the husband works I love cooking up something for myself with enough leftover for him to have for lunch the next day.  I made a few tweaks to the original recipe and decided to use up the last zucchini in the fridge and top with a Cashew Lemon Cream sauce.  This was a quick and easy dinner, enjoy!
