Tabbouleh (parsley salad)

My version of tabbouleh

Last week someone posted a photo of her tabouli on Facebook and it looked so good that I suddenly wanted to make some too. My version is a bit different from hers, and you can change it up according to what you have on hand. I used Italian parsley, wheat bulgar, chopped yellow and red tomatoes, half a cucumber, and some lemon zatar dressing.

You can use olive oil, squeezed lemon or lime, and salt & pepper for the dressing, and grate some lemon or lime zest into it and a bit of garlic if you like. Try tossing in a few chopped olives too, and scallions and mint leaves if you have any.

First I put a quarter cup of the bulgar into a small bowl and poured boiling water onto it to soften it for 15 minutes. Meanwhile I chopped the other ingredients and put them in a serving bowl. Lastly I poured the water off of the bulgar, mixed it into the salad, and stirred in the dressing.

So fresh, juicy, and flavorful! Parsley is high in zinc, which helps fight viruses, is healing for the skin, and is especially good for men to prevent prostate cancer.
