Flawless Tabouli Salad

I made this easy dish on my very first cooking class. My family loved it and yours will too.

1. Place in a large bowl:
- 1 cup of bulgur wheat

2. Then, on top of the bulgur wheat pour:
- 1 1/2 cups of boiling water
- 1/4 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice (store brand works too)
- 1/4 of a cup of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of salt

3. Stir the mixture and let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour.

4. The water should have mostly evaporated. Once it has been, add:
- 1 cup of minced scallions (about 1 bunch should do)
- 1 cup of chopped fresh mint leaves (really for all the ingredients, the fresher the better)
- 1 cup of chopped flat leaf parsley
- 1 or 2 diced medium cucumbers
- 2 cups of cherry tomatoes, cut in half
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of pepper

5. Mix well

This recipe serves about eight people as a side dish. Again, this recipe is from Candi Talley, my cooking teacher. Thanks Candi! Enjoy the Tabouli!



- Flavor, Fun and maybe a little mess!
