Tabbouleh

Yields10 ServingsPrep Time35 mins

​The bright flavor and herbiness of parsley is too often set aside as a plate garnish.  Tabbouleh is a fresh, lemony recipe that highlights the taste of parsley rather than just the look of it.

 ½ cup bulgur wheat
 2 cups fresh parsley, minced
 1 cup fresh mint, minced
 1 small red onion, finely chopped
 2 cups tomatoes, seeded and chopped
 ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil(omit for diabetics)
 salt, to taste
1

Soak the bulgur in room-temperature water and cover until the bulgur becomes tender, about 30 minutes. Drain well, squeezing out as much water as possible.

2

Combine the bulgur with parsley, mint, tomatoes, and onion. Whisk the olive oil with lemon juice and toss with the salad. Season with salt to taste.
