Fresh and Healthy Tabbouleh Recipe: A High-Protein Middle Eastern Salad

by Posted on

  • To begin making the Tabbouleh Recipe, combine couscous along with 1 1/2 cups of boiling water in a large bowl.

  • Cover the pan and allow the bulgur to rest and soak in the water for about an hour, until most of the water is absorbed. Drain any excess water.

  • To the above soaked couscous, add in the oil, lemon juice, onions, parsley, tomatoes, and cucumber, along with the salt and pepper. Toss well to combine all the ingredients well.

  • Cover and refrigerator for at least half an hour. This helps to bring out the flavors of the parsley and lemon well into the bulgur.

  • Serve Tabbouleh along with a warm with Pita Bread, Falafel and Hummus. It makes a perfect packed lunch that is nutritious and filling too.
