The other day, I wanted to make Tabbouleh as I had a lot of Parsley and Mint. To make Tabbouleh, I most likely use Burghul (Cracked Wheat), but I didn’t have any. I added chopped Cauliflower instead, and guess what. It was more delicious than the Tabbouleh made with Burghul. I must share this recipe with you. This salad is 100% plant-based. Today I added crunchy Edamame Beans as well, so it is more nutritious and delicious. This can be a perfect side dish for your next BBQ.
