Brown Rice Tabouli image

Tabouli is a great side or light snack on a hot summer day. My version is for those that DON'T like bulgar or are gluten sensitive. I also have additions to make this a "one dish wonder" for a complete meal and/or more veggies to satisfy the pallet of vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. This recipe can also be made with bulgar or barley...it is the best the next day. I even took it to my church picnic and got rave reviews.

Time P1DT3m

Yield 1 salad, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups Minute brown rice
1 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups fresh cilantro (stemmed and chopped)
1/4 cup of fresh mint (chopped)

  • For best results let stand overnight.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more lemon juice and herbs. I also would have preferred to use white rice instead of brown rice.

I was a bit skeptical about using brown rice in tabouli, but I was pleasantly surprised! The brown rice added a nice texture and flavor to the salad. I also liked the addition of the cucumbers and tomatoes, which gave it a nice freshness.

This was my first time making tabouli, and it turned out great! The instructions were easy to follow, and the end result was a delicious and refreshing salad. I especially liked the addition of the brown rice, which gave it a nice nutty flavor.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a hit! My friends and family love the unique flavor of the brown rice, and the vegetables add a nice crunch. It's also a very healthy dish, which is always a plus.

This brown rice tabouli was a delightful surprise! The combination of flavors and textures was perfect, and I loved the freshness of the herbs. It was a great way to use up some leftover brown rice, and I'll definitely be making it again.
