So what is Tabouli anyways? Well its a Mediterranean dish made with either Buckwheat or Bulgar. and veggies. Its a cold or room temperature salad. I absolutely love Tabouli and its really good for you. Bulgar or Buckwheat is a whole grain and as we know grains are extremely healthful. The veggies are all fresh and the dressing is so clean tasting. Best of all its only 122 calories for a cup. This recipe is 100% Vegan. So here we go...............
What you're gonna need...
1 Cup Bulgar or Buckwheat
1 Cup Water
3 Cloves of Garlic, minced
2 Tbs Mint leaves, finely minced( trust me it will taste good with this)
3/4 Cup of Flat Leafed Parsley,stems removed and finally minced
1 Cup of Chopped Tomato
1/2 English Cucumber, chopped
6 Scallions, Finely chopped
3 Tbs Lemon Juice
1/4 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Tsp Salt( I use sea salt)
What your gonna do.....
Soak Bulgar with Water for an hour. In the meantime get all the veggies & herbs cut up in a big bowl. Set aside. Mix Olive oil , Lemon and Salt together. Set Aside. When Bulgar has soaked for an hour add Bulgar to veggies. Mix in dressing. Refrigerate for 30 minutes so that flavors can blend.
