falafel for breea

1 3/4 cups dried chickpeas - soak all day or just for a few hours if that's all you have time for 8 hrs is ideal

put it all in the food processor and pulse until its chopped enough that you can form it into balls

or do it bryan and breea style:  chop dried chickpeas by hand.  then attempt to mix in blender.  cook in the fry daddy.

tzatziki

i made this up.

a little EVOO (like 1 T)
1 T vinegar (white or cider but last time i used balsamic cuz i felt like it and it was good)
garlic (i like a lot, so i usually just do about a T)
1/2 t salt
1/4 t pepper
1 C nonfat greek yogurt
1 c lite sour cream (i leave this out sometimes)
2 cucumbers small dice (peeled)
1 t dill (fresh is best, but i used dried dill weed)

mix it up and enjoy with falafel and pita.  or if you are short on time because you took 2 two year olds hiking then just use tortillas
