Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

Prepare the Cauliflower Rice: Pulse the cauliflower florets in a food processor until they resemble rice-sized grains. Be careful not to over-process; you want a texture similar to couscous. (approx. 10 seconds)

02

Step
0 mins

Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower 'rice' with lemon juice, olive oil, and minced garlic.

03

Step
1 mins

Add Freshness: Gently fold in the diced tomatoes, chopped scallions, fresh mint, and fresh parsley.

04

Step
0 mins

Season to Perfection: Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust the lemon juice or olive oil as needed to achieve your preferred balance of flavors.

05

Step
0 mins

Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, allow the Tabbouleh to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cumin or a dash of red pepper flakes.
If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the cauliflower by hand, though this will take significantly longer.
This Tabbouleh is delicious on its own as a light lunch, or as a side dish with grilled chicken, fish, or falafel.
Toasted pine nuts or chopped cucumber would be excellent additions.

    The key is to not over-process the cauliflower. Aim for a rice-like texture, not a puree.

    I like to add a sprinkle of sumac for an extra layer of flavor.
