Cauliflower Tabouli (Tabbouleh) Salad Recipe
Cauliflower Tabouli Tabbouleh Salad Recipe
"This dish is Paleo as well as low carb (ketogenic). It’s a great side dish to serve to help you eat more raw vegetables. Tabouli (also called tabbouleh) is a light side dish (mezze) popular in Middle Eastern cuisines. It’s traditionally made using bulgur (a type of whole grain) or couscous along with tomatoes, parsley, mint, olive oil, lemon juice, and onion. In this dish, I’ve replaced the grains (bulgur or couscous) with raw cauliflower florets that have been food processed into small pieces. This produces a texture that’s similar to couscous in texture and look. But I’ve kept most of the other traditional ingredients to produce a similar flavor."
