Tabbouleh salad is usually made with couscous. Although couscous has good nutrients, quinoa seems to have even more health benefits.
So this time, I made this different Tabbouleh.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup quinoa
- 1 cup grape tomatoes (cut in half)
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
- 1/4 cup chopped cucumber
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 3 tbsp olive oil (omit this for WFPB diet)
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- Pepper to taste
Wash well quinoa and boil it on the stove until tender. When quinoa is ready, drain any liquid left and place it in a medium bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients. Pour olive oil mixed with lemon juice on top and toss them all.
Refrigerate until served.
