TABOULI

If anyone enjoys eating "tabouli", I've listed an easy recipe to follow below.
Ingredients;
1 cup dry bulgar
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 to 1 1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
2 medium cloves of garlic, minced
black pepper to taste
4 scallions, finely minced (whites and greens)
1 packed cup minced parsley
10 to 15 fresh mint leaves, minced
2 medium-sized ripe tomatoes, diced
1 small cucumber, seeded and minced
Combine bulgar and boiling water into a large bowl. Cover and let stand until the bulgar is tender(30 minutes).
Add salt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, and black pepper, and mix thoroughly. Cover tightly and refrigerate until about 30 minutes before serving.
30 minutes before serving add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Serve cold. Tabouli tastes delicious served with toasted whole grain pita wedges.

  2. Hello Margie,
    My whole family likes Tabouli and I haven't made it in a long time until the other day. Everyone was happy I did too. My daughter and hubby even packed some in their lunches.
    I hope you enjoy this recipe!
    Have a nice Sunday!
    Lydia
