Directions
Start charcoals. Mix the falafel per instructions. Cut all vegetables.
When falafel is ready, get a piece of foil big enough to fit all the ingredients. (You'll know how big after you do your first one!) Put shiny side in. (I don't know why, just do it!) Put some falafel mix in the middle, shape like an oblong pattie. Put some of each vegetable on top, watch for carrots that like to roll off. :-) Sprinkle lots of seasoning.
Now the tricky part, closing the foil. You make a boat and take the long sides, put them together and roll a couple of times (as many as you can). You then take the ends and roll them upwards as far as you can. I take another piece of foil and wrap it again the same way in the same direction. You want to do it in such a way that no juice or steam can escape.
Do this until you are out of food. I made six good sized dinners with falafel and 2 with just vegetables. I probably used between 1½ and 2 cups of falafel mix.
Put foil dinners on coals, making sure there are no flames. After about 15 minutes, you can flip the dinners. When you start to smell the food, it probably is done. You really need to just make sure the vegetables are cooked. You can check a dinner at any time and just close it back up if it's not ready.
This is a really great dinner. Serve with bread if you have it. I like to put picante sauce on mine.
