Spiced Carrot and Quinoa Falafels with Slaw
These fantastic falafels are deliciously fresh, light and spicy, combining crunchy carrot with creamy Quinoa Flakes and nutty Carlin Peas. We love Fava Bean Falafel but can't fault these for a change. This recipe was created by Niki of food blog Rebel Recipes, who we met at the Soil Association BOOM Awards, where she carried off the award for best food blog - well deserved!
