Sometimes, just sometimes, you need something a bit different from your braised butter veggies or cheesy slaws. This light summer tabouleh makes a refreshing side and serves up oodles of healthy olive oil.
A little tomato goes a long way and some zest with the lemon juice really spreads the zing. Raw cauliflower rice is a crunchier low carb alternative to bulgur wheat. Pine nuts are a fat-laden treat but can come burdened with a price tag too, so feel free to substitute with chopped macadamias or brazils!
Here’s the nutritional information for one portion of this recipe. Please note this is calculated in Cronometer, as some of the values from Yumprint were a little odd and I wanted to make sure this captured all the ingredients properly.
