Feta-Stuffed Falafel with Tzatziki
Falafel can’t necessarily be improved—the classic Middle Eastern dish of deep fried herby chickpea fritters is perfect as is. But, while it may not be traditional, we couldn’t help but stuff them with the cult-favorite Australian sheep’s and goat’s milk feta from Meredith Dairy. While the falafel fries, this already-creamy cheese gets warm and delicious. You can tuck the falafel into a pita with your favorite spreads and veggies, but we like them served simply as an appetizer, dunked into cooling tzatziki.
