Tabouli Salad Recipe

extra fine bulgur wheat

Roma tomatoes, very finely chopped

English cucumber (hothouse cucumber), very finely chopped

mint leaves, stems removed, washed, well-dried, very finely chopped

green onions, white and green parts, very finely chopped

Salt

lime juice (lemon juice, if you prefer)

3-4 tbsp Early Harvest extra virgin olive oil

Romaine lettuce leaves

Wash the bulgur wheat and soak it in water for 5-7 minute. Drain very well (squeeze the bulgur wheat by hand to get rid of any excess water). Set aside.

Very finely chop the vegetables, herbs and green onions as indicated above. Be sure to place the tomatoes in a colander to drain excess juice.

Place the chopped vegetables, herbs and green onions in a mixing bowl or dish. Add the bulgur and season with salt. Mix gently.

Now add the the lime juice and olive oil and mix again.

For best results, cover the tabouli and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter. If you like, serve the tabouli with a side of pita and romaine lettuce leaves, which act as wraps or "boats" for the tabouli.

I just made this and think it is good. I did not put everything in that it called for..not so much mint or tomato and cucumber into some and not into the other half. I salted the tomatoes lightly after I chopped them, I added the chopped mint and parsley to the bulgar as soon as they were chopped so I could see if I wanted more greens. I chopped the onion and did the same, lightly salting and stirring in again. I chopped tomatoes and drained and added those. I did not use all 4 but sizes of things make a difference and 3 chopped looked fine with what I had in the mixing bowl. I loved making this. What a big happy mess. I zested 2 limes which gave the salad all its oomph the juiced and added the lime juice to the olive oil with a little salt and pepper and stirred all in. I added cucumber to some of it and not to the other part. I will absolutely use this as my recipe. Thanks so much. I have a friend who was a soux chef and I have learned from her to have fun and use my own judgement

I have made this recipe multiple times and it is always a hit!

I love this recipe. I used quinoa instead of bulgur wheat, and added red bell pepper, Kalamata olives, and feta (all finely chopped as well) to all of the other ingredients you listed. I may have added a bit more lime juice too. It was SO GOOD! Thanks for posting this!

I've been looking for a tabouli recipe like the one I used to have. This is the closest Ive found, only difference is the one I had used red wine vinegar. Can't wait to make this!
