Tabouli
AuthorKayley Lynch
*Note the tabouli must sit in the fridge for several hours or overnight so plan accordingly.
Bring some water to a boil, place bulgar in a bowl, then pour enough water over the bulgar to cover it, cover the bowl with a lid and let soak for 20 minutes.
2
Meanwhile cut your veggies. They should be pretty fine and all the same size. See picture above for example.
3
When the bulgar is done soaking, drain, combine all ingredients in a large bowl, and mix well. Taste and add as much salt and pepper as you see fit, I like a lot of salt on mine, I think it really brings out the flavors. Transfer to the refrigerator and let cool for several hours, preferably overnight before serving. This give the tabouli time to soak up the lemon juice and decrease the intensity of the parsley.

Serve with pita bread and other mediterranean dips and enjoy!

* Nutrition is based on the products I use. I provide a nutrition table so that you can quickly check to see if your food product s match or so that you can easily calculate the nutrition for any changes you want to make to the recipe. I think this helps if you have very specific diet goals and/or fitness and/or health goals. I also wanted you to be able to see exactly where I get the numbers for my nutrition facts so that you can see that they are reliable and learn more about macro breakdowns of food.
