These falafel burgers are filled with so many amazing flavors and spices. I used navy beans as the base for my falafel instead of chickpeas. Navy beans are another great source of protein, fiber, and antioxidants and is an immune boosting superfood! I paired the navy beans with classic and traditional herbs such as cilantro and parsley. I also used sauces like balsamic vinegar and Worcestershire sauce to add more flavor, depth, and texture to this recipe. I also paired this falafel with THE go to burger sauce — chipotle mayo and it made it 10 times better!
