Falafel is a popular Middle Eastern dish that is often fried in oil and served with pita and tahini dressing. This baked falafel bowl recipe is a lightened up version of the traditional fare. The creamy dill sauce pulls it all together with a touch of zing. Make it for your next summer gathering or pack it up for a light work lunch.
