Hello peeps! This week I wanted to share one of my favorite summer salads: tabouleh. Now, this is the way I make it and like most dishes I cook, it’s simple, quick and easy.

Tabouleh

Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped flat leaf parsley
  • 2 small tomatoes, cut in small cubes
  • 1 cup bulgur wheat
  • juice from 1 lemon
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • salt & pepper
  1. In a bowl or lidded container add the wheat and about 2 cups boiling water. You want the wheat to be covered in water with about an inch of water over it. Cover and set aside.
  2. While the wheat is “cooking”, chop up the parsley and cut the tomatoes. Empty into a salad bowl.
  3. After about 10 minutes, strain the wheat and rinse under cold water. Add to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients.
  4. Add lemon juice, olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
  5. Enjoy this amazingly refreshing summer salad with a thick slice of your favorite crusty bread. The juices left in the end are the best part!

Thanks for joining me!

Enjoy!
