Golden falafel pitas 🥙 I knew I wanted to make falafel but regular green falafel felt a little bit overdone on my profile. I tend to get inspiration from my family so I called my brother using @T-Mobile to try to get some ~creativity~ out of him. He suggested swapping the usual chickpeas and herbs for golden lentils and harissa in the falafel just to try something different, and it honestly came together way easier than I expected. Same crispy bite, just a new flavor twist. It got me thinking about how some swaps feel intimidating until you actually do them. Like how switching to T Mobile just takes 15 minutes and your life keeps moving. Anyway, here’s your reminder that switching things up doesn’t have to be a whole production—sometimes it’s quick, painless, and actually kinda fun. Head to the link in my bio to make the switch to T Mobile today. #TMobilePartner RECIPES fluffiest pita 🥙 1.
