Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup dry bulgur wheat
  • 2 cups chopped Roma tomatoes (about 4-5 tomatoes)
  • 1 cup chopped green onion
  • 2 bunches chopped parsley
  • 1 tbsp chopped mint leaves
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tbsp lemon or lime juice
  • 1 tsp each salt and pepper (or to taste)

Instructions

  • If cooking tabouli, in a large pot, add tabouli and just enough water to cover the grains. Cook for about 30 minutes, or until water has been absorbed. Or, if using fine bulgur, soak in 1/2 cup water until fully absorbed, about 20 minutes. Please refer to cooking directions on the package of bulgur wheat you purchase.
  • While bulgur is cooking/soaking, chop up the tomatoes, green onions, parsley, and mint. Juice the lime or lemon.
  • Add the chopped vegetables, olive oil, lemon or lime juice, salt and pepper into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the bulgur to the same bowl once it is done.
  • Mix everything until fully incorporated.
  • Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
  • Enjoy!
