Felafal Pitta Pockets

V  Our "Midweek Meat-free Meal" was a day late again, this week ... but still relatively "midweek"! We have tried Granose Felafel Mix before (see their range here) and enjoyed it, so I thought I'd put together a nice pitta meal. We had wholemeal pittas, spread with a little houmous, then filled with the felafels and a gorgeous simple salad/salsa, topped with minty Greek yogurt. The olives were just there to nibble while the meal was being prepared ... which only took 15 minutes or so, in total! Very substantial and very delicious! (An incredibly quick, easy, cheap and healthy meal to make!)

The salad was simply chopped cucumber, tomato, red onion and coriander, seasoned lightly with salt & black pepper, dressed with lemon juice and olive oil. The Greek yogurt was mixed with a teaspoon of garden mint (from a jar) and a sprinkle of dried mint. To be honest, I could even have just enjoyed these two in the pitta, without the felafels at all! (Although they were very tasty.)
