Chef Barbara Alexander demonstrates how to make a Navy Bean Falafel Mediterranean Bowl at The Culinary Institute of America. To make the falafel, she pulses together navy beans, an egg, garlic, and spices and sautés them until crispy. These are served in a bowl with delicious Mediterranean ingredients, including Kalamata olives, pistachios, pomegranate arils, cucumber, tomatoes, herbs, and a creamy tahini dressing.
