Tabbouleh

Tabbouleh is a nice parsley-mint flavored side dish that is served chilled or at room temperature and is a very healthy salad. Its main ingredient can be anything bulgar or couscous or Quinoa. I simply love it. It comes from Lebanon and is very popular in western countries. Very simple and a great summer treat.

Here is the recipe:
