Description

This dish is a Middle Eastern favorite and there are as many versions of it as there are families there. Here’s one of my favorite ways of making it. This time I’ve used quinoa instead of the bulgur or couscous that is more traditional. The tabouleh could be made a day ahead of time and be ready for your picnic. It is fun to serve tabouleh on crunchy leaves of lettuce. I also like making stuffed grape leaves with the tabouleh mix, which is a very practical way to have them on a picnic.

  • ✓ 1 bunch of flat leaf parsley (chopped fine
  • ✓ ½ bunch of fresh mint (chopped fine)
  • ✓ 1/3 cup of red onion (fine diced)
  • ✓ 1 cup of cherry tomatoes (cut small or diced)
  • ✓ 3-4 Tablespoons of lemon juice (or to taste) you can also substitute half of it with pomegranate molasses, which gives a nice sweet and tangy flavor
  • ✓ 1 pinch of salt
  • ✓ ½ cup of cooked bulgur (or couscous, quinoa, or other grain)
  1. Put all the chopped and diced veggies in a large bowl and mix.
  2. Add the cooked grains and mix again.
  3. Dress with lemon juice.
  4. Season with salt and mix again.
