Turkey Falafel Muffins

I am loving my mini cupcake pan... so much I practically use it every other day, but not for cupcakes...for dinner!

This is a take on tradition falafel balls. Falafel balls are just chickpeas with spices, these contain ground turkey (ground chicken would work also). All you need is a good food processor. Also these tend to be on the dryer side...I served it with baba ganoush, cucumber salad and sauteed squash. You can use tzatziki sauce or even a nice tahini sauce.

1 can of organic chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
1-4 Cloves of garlic (personal preference +/-)
1 -3 tsp of salt (personal preference +/-)

Pulse it up!

A handful of fresh Organic Flat Leafed Parsley.

Pulse it up!

1 lb of Ground turkey (or chicken, dark or white)
1 tbsp of Ground Cumin

Pulse it up!

Put in greased (with olive oil) muffin tins and bake for 375 for 15-25 minutes.
They should be firm to the touch and slightly bronzed.
