Traditional tabouli is made with Bulgar and served as part of a mezze (selection of dishes served with drinks or as starters to a main).  We use tabouli as an addition to lunch or dinner in wraps, served with other vegetables and as a side to other dishes.  Our version is easy and uses quinoa which is becoming a very popular substitute.

Ingredients

  • 2 large bunches parsley – washed, drained
  • 2 large tomatoes – washed, diced
  • 1 small red onions – peeled, rinsed, diced
  • 6 tablespoons quinoa
  • 1 lemon – juiced
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

  1. Prepare quinoa.  Cool and add to a large serving bowl.
  2. Either roughly chop parsley or roughly blend and add to bowl.
  3. Prepare remaining vegetables and add to bowl.
  4. Mix lemon juice and olive oil in a small container.
  5. Pour dressing over vegetables and mix well.   Serve.
