Quinoa is higher in protein and lower in carbs than most grains, so this is a healthier alternative to the traditional bulgur tabbouleh. Also its gluten free. You can eat this with pita chips or on its own...
Ingredients:
-1 cup quinoa
-1/4 cup olive oil
-1/4 cup lemon juice
-1 cup chopped parsley
-1 cucumber, diced and seeded
-2 tomatoes, diced and seeded
1. Rinse the quinoa in 2 changes of water. Place it in pot with two cups of water and bring it to a boil. Cover and let simmer for approximately 12-15 minutes. The cooked quinoa should look like a little curl. Let it stand for 3 minutes to become fluffy.
2. Mix in the other ingredients, including salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate to let the flavors marinate or enjoy immediately!
