Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large bowl, place the bulgur wheat and pour the boiling water over it. Cover the bowl and let it stand for about 30 minutes, or until the water is fully absorbed and the bulgur is tender and fluffy. (30 minutes)

02

Step

While the bulgur is soaking, prepare the remaining ingredients. Ensure all vegetables are washed and properly diced for a consistent texture in the salad.

03

Step

In a large salad bowl, gently combine the chopped parsley, spinach, diced tomato, yellow bell pepper, red onion, minced garlic, and cannellini beans.

04

Step

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper to create a zesty dressing.

05

Step

Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss gently to coat evenly.

06

Step

Add the cooked bulgur to the salad bowl and lightly stir everything together to thoroughly combine all the ingredients.

07

Step

Cover the salad bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together and the salad to chill. (1 hour)

08

Step

Before serving, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add more lemon juice for extra tang, or olive oil for richness.

09

Step

Serve chilled and enjoy!

For an enhanced flavor profile, consider adding a handful of chopped fresh mint or a sprinkle of sumac.
If you prefer a softer bulgur, soak it in hot water for a longer period. Check for desired texture.
This White Bean Tabbouleh can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will continue to develop over time.
