Cold Sesame Noodles with Cucumber
Remember those sesame noodles I used to order in New York as a cash-strapped actress? Well, I've re-created my own recipe here and, in my humble opinion, it's even better than the original. Best part? This is a cinch to make.

Falafel Patties with Tahini-Maple Dipping Sauce

These dippers are slightly flattened falafels, with their own cool dipping sauce.
