Falafel Pita Sandwich with Tahini Sauce

Falafel has such a prominent taste, but the tahini and freshness of the vegetables really complement it nicely.

Step: 1

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place falafel on a baking sheet.

Step: 2

Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, 8 to 10 minutes.

Step: 3

While falafel bake, whisk tahini, water, lemon juice, garlic, and paprika together in a bowl.

Step: 4

Cut about 1 inch from the top of each pita to form a pocket. Add 2 falafel to each pita with equal amounts lettuce, tomato, cucumber, pickle, and red onion. Drizzle each with about 1 tablespoon tahini sauce and some harissa.
