I am a pretty close minded person when it comes to food. If it moves and you can kill it, that is what will be on my plate but when I moved to New York things changed. First things first, I found out about the interesting world of vegetarians. These are people who just eat stuff that don't move or make sounds. At least, I don't think carrots make sounds although mangos probably make sounds when I devour them.
However, these wonderful herbivores, find ways to make interesting things with veggies. So when I walked past MOAZ, I didn't think I would be interested in anything. My Nigerian Caribbean American German friend pulled me in and forced me to try----
Those brown things inside the pita bread are falafels and they are delightful fried chic peas.
Tasty and much healthier than a burger. I filled my pita with all types of hearty veggies like carrots, beans, tomatoes and walked down the block feeling like a new woman.
So try one!
